Dear Christopher,

I would be happy to talk with you. The first thing I think you should do is come down to a Symphony rehearsal at DeVos Hall. See what your schedule is for next week. We can do sort of a job shadow thing. I would recommend next Thursday evening. That is our dress rehearsal for our next Classical concert. I could talk with management about you sitting up on stage with us. also our recording engineer will be there and you can meet him and talk with him. In the mean time my phone number is 446-XXXX. I would ask that you do not give that out to anyone since it is my cell phone. I look forward to talking with you.

Sincerely,

David Gross, Principal Timpanist
Grand Rapids Symphony

yeah, i sat up on stage with him for the thursday dress rehearsal, and sat in the booth with the engineer on friday. and honestly, sitting in the booth made me realize i didn't want to be a performer. i wanted to be a techie. so, i had a couple lessons with Mr. Gross to prep for my audition, but he basically said that he could tell i had the potential, but the devotion wasn't there. so he discouraged me from auditioning.

and here i am.
