Bloomsburg University Community Orchestra

It is with a heavy heart that we share that our longtime timpanist, Jack Davenport, has passed away this past week. Jack was a charter member of the Bloomsburg University Community Orchestra, being a member for 47 or 48 years! He always arrived early for rehearsals and performances and was prepared. And when the conductor threw a curveball at him for a change in timbre or order of rehearsal (or even asking him to play something besides timpani), he was always willing to help out and go with the flow. He will be missed.

There's no destination to reach as a musician, it's all about enjoying all parts of the process in all the different moments of your life!!

So true. Practice! But also remember to live!
