UMKC Workshop Follow-up

6/23/2013

I had a wonderful time at the University of Missouri-Kansas City Composition workshop. The group at the left were all of the participants of the improvisation track. I had an amazing experience meeting and working with composers ranging in age from 14-54 and as many skill levels. I would particularly like to thank Dr. Jim Mobberley, Dr. Mara Gibson, Dr. Paul Rudy, Violist Michael Hall, and the Kansas City NewEar Ensemble.
