Hi Jazzkat - my son knows the 1st chair AVJE trumpeter from a brass ensemble that they are in together. That is actually a plus and a minus. He likes him quite a bit and really respects his playing ability, but he also has a desire to “remake” himself at university and is not sure if he would be able to when he knows so many of the other players. I’m curious…where did your son decide to go…Temple? My son is also a bit concerned that there may be too many “distractions” at VCU and in Richmond - it is a very vibrant community and school with much to do.
