Registration for the 2010 Chicago Bass Festival (Sunday, Feb. 7, 2010 from 9:30 am – 5 pm) just opened up. You can register here or through any page on the Chicago Bass Festival website. I cannot emphasize strongly enough how much this event will rock–it’s a veritable powerhouse of bass clinician talent from the Chicago Symphony, Lyric Opera, the Chicago jazz scene, and faculty members of our major university program. Register now and I’ll see you there!

By the way, I’m the guy with the spreadsheet figuring out what session goes in what room at what time, so expect many updates on the specifics of sessions over the coming weeks, but rest assured that there’s be something for every area of interest and experience level. Looking to land that next spot in the Boston Symphony? This is the place to be. In middle school and having fun learning the bass? This is also the place to be. You get the idea.
