Incredible performance! This was one of my all-time favorite solos from high school. Also say hi to Dr. Croomes for me next time you see him! I played for him a couple years before he started at LSU

Did this for a state solo back in high school. One of my favorites to learn. Very good job! As a kid learning the runs was the hardest cause the notes don’t really jive like a normal melody. And there wasn’t RUclips’s or anything to watch to compare with others.
