Wow, May already….how did that happen???!!!!!   I have had a VERY busy past few months. Lots of great teaching at LMU, CSUN and LAVC. Just finishing the semester at LMU and CSUN ( a HUGE pile of final grading is sitting on my desk as I type this….procrastinating, perhaps ? ).  LAVC still has 2 weeks to go, and then it is officially summer-time for Professor Lewis 😉

We had another REALLY successful guitar festival at LMU in March. Had about 200 K-12 guitar students registered and participating in the weekend. Also had amazing concerts, masterclasses and workshops by Jorge Caballero, Andrew York, Lynn McGrath, Risa Carlson and Duo Bandini-Chiacchiaretta.

Workshop with Risa Carlson

Took a quick trip to East Sussex during spring break the first week of April to see my family. Quick 6 day trip, but worth every moment !

Winchelsea Beach, East Sussex…….home 🙂

Somewhere over Greenland, LHR – LAX.

April and early May had been a whirlwind of student recitals, concert preparation, finals and student juries. Managed to sneak a few gigs in there myself, including a very fun faculty recital at LAVC with my dear colleague Greg Newton and a special guest David Grimes. We had a blast !!!
