Shout Out to the Lorenz Corporation

I wanted to take this next blog post and express my thanks to Kris Kropff and the Lorenz Corporation. As many of you know I have a number of pieces published with Lorenz and this past spring my first piano book, "My Redeemer" came out with Lillenas (Lorenz owns the keyboard division of Lillenas). I really wanted to be able and leave something with the students in India that would be a reminder of our time together. My piano book seemed like the perfect choice. I found out from Abraham the number of students in my composition class would be around 25. I wrote to Kris at Lorenz about getting books for the students. I sent the email late in the evening and when I woke the next morning there was a reply from Kris saying that Lorenz would be honored to provide the books for my students. 25 comp copies were in the mail the same day just a few hours after getting her email. You rock, Kris! What a great company! I am one of many, many composers who write for Lorenz but I always feel like a VIP when I have emailed about anything. They have compassionate and giving people who work for them and they go out of their way to make you feel special. Thanks to Lloyd Larson and Larry Shackley for being amazing editors to work with as well. Also a big thanks to all the people behind the scenes that make Lorenz a success. Boy, this is starting to feel a little like an acceptance speech, please forgive me for rambling. I would like to thank my wife, my kids...

I also would like to tell you about another way you can be involved in this trip. I will be teaching a conducting class. It will have 8-10 students in it. They do not have a text and I found a gem of a book called Conducting Techniques For Beginners and Professionals by Brock McElheran. It is an exceptional book that will benefit the students. I would like to purchase a copy for each student and also be able to leave a few at the college with Abraham. They are only $8. So I have set up a Crowdrise account for $150. This would allow me to purchase 12-15 books and then ship them along with the piano books from Lorenz over to India so I don't have to carry them in my luggage. If you are interested in helping with this cost, click on the widget below and make a donation. I would LOVE to have you partner with me.

Until next time!
