Absolutely unreal! If you had told us 10 years ago

Absolutely unreal! If you had told us 10 years ago when we were sitting in this very Symphony Band that Akropolis would be where we are today, we wouldn't have believe it. What a privilege to come out of this program and now be invited back to celebrate the #reedquintet and our 10 years of music making together. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Roshanne Etezady, thank you for writing an absolutely killer concerto and thank you to Professor Michael Haithcock for your enormous support and for making this collaboration and world premiere possible. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
And finally, thank you to so many of our friends, family, teachers, and fans for coming out to hear us on Friday night. Always and forever #goblue!⁠⠀
