Japan Charity Concert

We were able to raise more than $1000 to send to Japan!!!  All the wonderful offering was combined with more donation from the church and sent to Japan.

Even it was on Monday night concert, we were very thankful to see many people there...!
Very special Thank you to the John Calvin's Presbyterian church for time and place... and all the support to make this happen...!

We wish Japan's better tomorrow... each day...

NFA Performances

Time goes by very fast!  We attended to the NFA (The National Flute Association)'s annual convention 8/11-14!  We were selected to play in a tribute concert for our former flute professor at the Ohio State University, KBJ: a former president of the NFA for several times, a great mentor for both of us, award winner for the NFA 2011... list can go mils long... All of her former students got together and performed in a concert honoring her.  Which was very touching moment...  Morgann and I met through attending KBJ's Summer Highschool Flute Workshop all the way back in 2002... Our friendship and musicianship clicked, and here we are as Dual Reveries... performing in KBJ concert... We were very happy we could be part of this concert.  What a great honor... and many many appreciation to our great mentor. 


2011 NFA convention was a very memorable one...!!!!!!  We are very proud to be a buckeye flutists :)

OH.....  IO..!!!!
 
KBJ's former students, 1977-2011, who were able to get together at the convention 2011!!

Summer 2011!

I cannot believe, that it is already August!!!! Busy June went by, then July... I am finally in Madison, WI with Morgann!!! Dual Reveries finally re-united last weekend after whole year of not seeing each other!!! Even though how long we haven't seen each other, distance does not matter to us... Well, it would be amazing to make music with her all the time, however, America-France does not seem that far to us :)  We will have few weeks of exciting summer together!!! Thanks to great friendship and musicianship she provides.... :)
