This week in orchestra we read the composition students' pieces, the orchestration students' pieces and some pieces for the conducting students. I find it very interesting to look at student works, and try to figure out what makes a good composition good and a bad one bad. To me there were three pieces that stood out - one by Justin Ralls, one by Anne Polyakov (a friend) and one by Nathan Campbell (who won the comp comp). Keep an eye out for these guys.
On Friday I went on an industrial caching expedition.

Yesterday Maddy and I went to the "slidey-hill" to celebrate our tough Western Civ final exam being over.
Here is a spectacular slide run
And here are some more pictures

This was going to be my last post, but actually I think I'm going to write one more in the middle of next week, because my Father and I are planning an awesome road trip back up to YYC, and I'm sure I'll have pictures to share from same.
