I played this as a 14 year old. I made all state in Texas the next year. This piece really prepared me for what was to come. ❤❤❤

Beautiful performance. Way back in the early 1970s I studied at Berklee with Lou Magnano, an excellent percussionist in the Boston area. He had studied with George Hamilton Green, and was a rigorous teacher himself. He used the Goldenburg book a lot and I performed the A minor etude for my first proficiency exam.
