2016 has been a good year for UNCG clarinet student alumnus Kwami Barnett! In 2015, Kwami moved to Colorado to pursue his DMA at the University of Northern Colorado, Greeley (I have felt some kinship to that university as “the other UNCG” but actually their abbreviation is “UNCO”). This post is dated as October 11, 2016 to mark his first faculty recital in his new teaching position at Colorado Christian University. A few months after being appointed at CCU, he also won the Principal Clarinet position with the Denver Philharmonic. Congratulations to Kwami, and best wishes to your developing career in the West!
Congratulations to Kwami Barnett (MM, 2015)
