What's up readers? I'm still here.

I haven't posted for awhile and figured that it is about time that I do. I have been working hard on material for guitar recital that I have coming up. I am working on finishing up a degree in music and am required to do two recitals. The first one is half of an hour's worth of music and the other is a full hour. It takes a lot of work, but I've been learning a lot too.

Here are a few of the things that I've been up to:

I played guitar for a university choir in this huge church setting. The piece was simple but had an interesting rhythm that required some thought on my part. It was fun overall.


I've tried a number of different strings. After a few tries including these Sevillas, I came back to some Augustine Imperial Blue (hard tension). They work fairly well for my style of playing and they are relatively cheap compared to other strings. I have thought that I might try a medium tension again, but we'll see.

Well, gotta go for now. I plan on posting in the near future, so keep an eye out for more.
