-Louisa | So your working up the Carmen Fantasy? that's a beast of a piece. I thought about it momentarily, but quickly realized that ISB is during the week of my graduation, which really sucks. |

Yeah, it's a fantastic piece to play! I was really happy that that was the required piece this year. |

It is one of those pieces that I dream about playing at some point in the future. |

As for calibass' question: This website should suffice. |

As for calibass' question: This website should suffice. | It'll be my first year going to the convention as well. I was wondering about the same thing.... I know of four (including you and myself), but that's as much as I know (and I'm sure there's probably a lot more than that!).. But I think it'll be a really exciting competition! I've rarely done competitions where other bass players are involved, so it'll be a really good experience! |
