Jeffrey Meyer will be premiering Doodles: Five Variations for Solo Tuba on March 7th as a part of his Masters Recital at Kent University. I worked with Jeff a couple summers ago in upstate New York at the Luzerne Music Center; it was there that he first asked me to write him a piece for solo tuba. I wrestled with the concept for many months, and then in January 2006 I suddenly knew what I had to write. After a months of agonizing over this piece, when I finally figured out what to write, the piece almost wrote itself. Ever since, Jeff has been working on the piece, and now the piece is finally getting its first performance. Jeff is a wonderful tuba player, and I strongly encourage anyone in the area to attend this recital. It is sure to be amazing.
