Playing Holiday Concerts With Orchestra Iowa

More December concerts with Orchestra Iowa!  The Holiday Concert set was great because I got to play with some of my favorite friends and colleagues, Courtney Miller and Jillian Camwell.  You know the theory of 3s in a gig right?  It goes like this: a gig has 3 characteristics-- the music, the people/colleagues, and the pay.  If 2 out of 3 of those elements are there, then it is a gig worth doing!  Well, Christmas music is not the most musically rewarding  thing, but playing for a decent wage and doing it with fantastic people?  It hit all the sweet spots.  One cool fact: this was the first time my husband and I have played an orchestra gig together!  ​
