On November 29-30, we had the Mississippi Guitar Festival on the campus of the University of Southern Mississippi in Hattiesburg. Nicholas Ciraldo, Assistant Professor of Guitar at USM did an excellent job organizing the festival. Our guest artist was William Kanengiser, a brilliant performer and outstanding teacher.

In this photo, my student Ronnie Holder is performing in the William Kanengiser masterclass. Ronnie did an outstanding job playing for Mr. Kanengiser and quickly encorporated the musical ideas that were presented to him. This was a good experience for Ronnie and I am very proud of how well he played.
