More Video Goodies

Two goodies actually. The CU pendulum website has a link to two performances I was a part of last season. The first is a video of a performance of Steve Reich's Clapping Music that I happen to be in (3rd from the left). The second is a performance of Phil Kline's Unsilent Night. You can see my face for only a single frame, 1 minute 17 seconds in - on the very right edge of the window. Also note, 21 seconds in features my fantastic handwriting on the CD-Rs. You can check both out below:
