Tonight’s assignment was to photograph a Western Piedmont Symphony rehearsal. The symphony is rehearsing Meira Warshauer’s “Symphony No. 1 - Living, Breathing Earth” for a world debut performance. Meira Warshauer was in attendance to provide feedback as the symphony rehearsed. My objective was to make photos that could be used to highlight the opening of the performance. Unfortunately, I don’t think this photo will be the one they choose, but it was my favorite from the shoot. Newspapers like to print photos of people :) I covered that part too, but they were much less interesting, IMO, than this one.

Hi John, I finally got a chance to stop by. I like your blog. Nice shot of the music with the soft glow of light. I’ve never been to the Western Piedmont Symphony. It is one of those things on my long to do list. The closest I have gotten is by watching my son in middle school! I don’t know where to find the time to fit everything in.
