Received this yesterday from a musician in the pit orchestra of my current running show. It means a lot of me because the player is very seasoned and has “been around the block”. If you haven’t worked with me in the pit before – I can tell you it’s very intense. But all with the goal of creating the best sound possible. When musicians have the personal drive to work as a team and perform their very best – great things happen.<\/p>\n
Comment Received <\/strong><\/p>\n By the way, you are the best show conductor I have ever played with. I used to play most of the shows at the Circle Star Theatre and I also played for Lew Elias’s Relief orchestra in Las Vegas. ( I played the relief orchestra because most shows ran at least six weeks and two shows per night and I could not stand that much repetition, so I played different shows every night.) Anyway, I played with these big guys and you are definitely the most skilled. It takes so much more skill to work with amateurs and especially a mix of amateurs and professionals if some of the professionals are the “prima donna” type. So, I am very impressed. It is too bad that you are going to leave here. <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Received this yesterday from a musician in the pit orchestra of my current running show.
