Auditions begin January 12 for this year's Greater Richmond Youth Wind Ensemble.  As of this morning we are still in desperate need of clarinet players.  I know there are hundreds of clarinetists in the Richmond metro area and I am certain that some of them would love to have this opportunity.  Will you please help me get the word out to your students?  Not just clarinetists, but any and all students.  I have always envisioned this ensemble as a valuable, long-term supplement to area band programs.  It is my desire that the students who participate in GRYWE come to your rehearsals with an even greater sense of purpose, enhanced skills, and enthusiasm.  Please help me to offer the best possible experience for Richmond area band students.  Here is the information.
