It's hard to believe that I have done over 1100 weekly updates to the site, and that next Monday, I'll be taking down all the ads. It was an incredibly difficult decision, but with our page views on the site declining because ad volume had dropped off so much, it seemed like a disservice to the advertisers. Over the past three months, we averaged 3 new ads a week. As of this past Monday, there were only 11 ads. Oddly enough, the Classifieds cost me a job. I started working with the OTJ Classifieds in 1997, just before I was hired by a newspaper. I was open with them about the classifieds, and both the publisher and corporate office felt there was no conflict of interest because it was not-for-profit and did not deprive the paper of one cent of revenue. In 2007, the paper was sold to a venture capital group and I had progressed to senior management, supervising the web site, IT infrastructure, and classified advertising. As the new corporate owners planned to centralize IT support, web site support, and to reduce the classified ad staff to a centralized telephone service, they used the OTJ Classifieds as a conflict of interest to terminate my employment, though they also provided a severance package - somewhat unheard-of for a termination for cause. I think they didn't want me to file a wrongful termination lawsuit. But when I was told that I no longer had a job, I was at first panicked - I had a wife, four kids, two dogs, a cat, and a mortgage. The next emotion, 45 seconds later, was "You mean I never have to come back here?" I had just completed my Master's in bass trombone performance and was enrolling for DMA coursework, but I had no idea how I could do the work since UMKC did not offer evening coursework. Their decision to eliminate my job allowed me to go back and complete my DMA. And, oddly enough, the straight-out-of-trade school kid they hired to run IT after letting me go couldn't handle it, and kept calling me for help. After four months of this, I had to say "OK - tell the boss that I was fired, and if you want to know what I know, I now offer consulting services at $100/ hour, two hour minimum, payable in cash." They never called again. The moral of that story isn't that I managed to survive, or anything else. Re-read the statement "The next emotion, 45 seconds later, was 'You mean I never have to come back here?' " NEVER STAY AT A JOB YOU HATE, no matter how badly you fear change. The publisher who hired me had watched both of his parents carried out of the paper on gurneys by EMTs after having fatal heart attacks on the job. The stress level was outrageous. But my then 13 year old daughter summed it up. About two months after the firing, she said, "Dad, you've changed since you got fired. You laugh, you play with us, you don't yell all the time." Ouch. With all that said, all I can say is "Stay tuned" - I have a couple other projects up my sleeve!

It?s not possible to convey in words the incredible influence these 2 powerful souls have meant and continue to mean to me!! What is the Frequency Band? Click here: http://air-ev.com/frequencyband.cfm Mr. Bolter is a retired trombonist of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, former principal trombone of the Boston Pops and a former member of the Empire Brass Quintet. He is currently Teacher/Composer at New England Conservatory and Boston Conservatory. Dr. Viera is a pioneering performing arts psychologist and coach, functional health practitioner, co-director of the Frequency Band and owner/creative director of Air-ev Productions. Over the past twenty five years, Norman Bolter and Carol Viera have challenged student and professional musicians from around the world to 'break out' of their habitual ideas about themselves and their music in order to discover, explore and activate new possibilities yet untapped in their lives and music making experiences. These Frequency Band master classes, workshops, and concerts, focused on "music as a living thing" and each musician's deliberate self inclusion in this process, have been acclaimed by students, colleagues, audiences and the press here and abroad, and the achievements of those who have received this training--including outstanding performances, recordings and positions secured in leading orchestras and universities--speak for themselves. 4/25/19 Masterclass 4-6pm in PNC Hall Brass Ensemble/Trombone Choir open rehearsal 7-9pm in PNC Hall Hope to see you all there!

I have a quick question. Do you have any advice about the best melodica to buy? I am in a wheelchair. This greatly limits my keyboard options. I use iRealPro to practice. I thought of a melodica as a neat and compact way of trying out different chord inversions. It would lie on my desktop while I was looking at chord sequences on iRealPro?s screen. I'd like one with the most keys possible, of course, one that is reasonably in tune and one that will last a long time. Of course, price is important. I don't want to pay $500 for a professional model. That seems like overkill. Any suggestions? And thank you for your advice.

The work is in four movements, based upon a remote area of the San Juan Mountains of southwestern Colorado that was once served by the Rio Grande Southern Railroad. Movement I, "Lizard Head" is based on a 13,000+ peak that tops out with a towering rock formation, making it one of the most spectacular peaks in Colorado. Movement II, "Trout Lake" recreates the gentle lapping of waves on this mile long lake located at 10,000 feet above sea level. Movement III, "Ophir Loop" is comprised of two jigs that are heard separately and then together, a tribute to the men & women who built and worked this area. One hears the echo as we make our way around the loop. The last movement, "Telluride" is a jazz inspired call and response, saluting the towns raucous past and current status as one of the premier four-season resorts in the United States. The performance is part of the university brass area showcase, featuring the four studio ensembles and the brass choir. It will be live streamed at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOp2Qx_TMGM beginning at 7:00 pm 4-18-2019. Dennis F.
