<description><![CDATA[ (Oct 22, 2010) What happens when you take a wind ensemble and add the most powerful and vocal of the woodwinds?   The Northern Symphonic Winds will join forces with saxophonist Christopher Creviston for a performance of Bolcom’s “Concert Suite” on Saturday, October 30 in Malone.  Creviston teaches at the Crane School of Music in Potsdam and has performed as soloist in front of bands and orchestras across the country.  Todd Moe caught up with him in his studio at Crane to talk about the saxophone and a piece that’s been called a “tour de force” for saxophonists.

<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/16017/20100722/canton-woman-will-sing-national-anthem-for-mets</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Jul 22, 2010) SUNY Potsdam senior Meg Watson will be at Citi Field Stadium in Queens for a New York Mets game next Tuesday.  But she won&apos;t be there just for the love of baseball.  Watson, a senior at the Crane School of Music, was selected to sing the national anthem before the first pitch.  Watson was chosen as one of 32 finalists during the Met&apos;s Anthem Search. Winners are singing the song at home games this year.  Watson says she agreed to be a contestant because her boyfriend, Rob Mellon, is a big Mets fan and also tried out.  Mellon didn&apos;t make the final cut, but he&apos;ll be in the stands next week to cheer for Meg and his favorite team.  Todd Moe has more.
