I spent two weeks surrounded by the beauty of Halfway, Oregon, making music and many new friends as well. I was fortunate enough to meet many amazing musicians, as well as write two pieces for some of them during my time there. These pieces, along with a previous arrangement, were premiered at the final concert:
