GCMS V - Guest Conductor Mini-Series
Five featuring the
internationally-acclaimed euphonium artist & conductor
Dr. Earle L. Louder
October 9, 2002 return to main index
Dr. Louder meets the Tiger Symphonic Band
and begins the "Main Event" of the Guest Conductor
Mini-Series Five
Now
here are two very, very happy looking individuals - as Dr.
Louder spends some quality time with Adam and his Tuba
Little
Jason looks moderately distressed as Dr. Louder demonstrates
(rather forcefully) the importance of air flow as they spend
some trombone time together (and it was at this juncture that
Dr. Louder first shared with us "The Trick" on his
trombone - which if you have not seen - you would not believe)
No Tiger Band Event is complete
without a great deal of Good Food
Our ever-faithful Food Friends -
who prepared the great GCMS Reception
Fledgling David (aka SPIT) and
Mitch (Aka Burley) and other Band Scholars at "the
trough"
Dr. Louder enjoying the goodies - with
"The Queen" [Best of Band Friends] talking to Dr.
Cairo towards the back - and our wonderful, ever-faithful Band
Friends, Kim & Sheila Summers to the right
Left:
A "clump" of Fledglings chatting (and our Band
Alchemist - aka Tyler - looking distinctly up to no good)
Right: Okay - this is really
not a very good picture - Killer (aka Emily) looks totally
"whacked" - Fledgling Ken looks perplexed - and no one
really wants to see my backside - mea culpa
Dr. Louder sharing his thoughts on
breathing with the Tiger Symphonic Band
Left:
Dr. Louder as he conducts the great Sousa march, The Black Horse
Troop
Right: Team Trombone buckles
down to enjoy the full benefits of this special time with Dr.
Louder
Dr.
Louder with his much-beloved euphonium, and believe you me -
when he plays that horn - it is as if the angels are singing
What
a great and memorable day it was as our Tiger Bands and the Band
Scholars had the privilege and pleasure to serve as host to Dr.
Earle L. Louder, our Clinician for the GCMSV [aka Guest
Conductor Mini-Series Five]. We shan't soon forget our time with
this most-remarkable musician and gentleman.
