Vespertine Formations

This is a music-themed blog by The Man Octave (themanoctave.tumblr.com). I can't follow you back on this blog, but if I like your blog I'll follow you on my main.

I'm a Junior in college studying Instrumental and Vocal Music Education, with a primary on trumpet and an intended Jazz minor. My passion lies in Marching Band/Drum Corps, Jazz, and worship music, but I understand the importance of teaching all disciplines and all musical concepts. You can also view my online teaching portfolio by clicking the world icon below.

This blog will serve as a place to express my thoughts and share my love of music throughout my endeavors as a musician. Mostly, you'll just see pictures of instruments, but I like to post education related things as well. Enjoy!

more recently we got to class and he said to this kid isaac “you hungry?” and he was like yeah so everyone chipped in some cash and we just ordered a pizza

he gives everyone a piece of chocolate at the beginning of every class period

This is why music teachers are the coolest.

“You guys are too loud!”

“WE DIDN’T EVEN PLAY”

Same key. Every time.
