About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To begin my career as a classical musician in Europe and give to the audience a performance they will never forget

ABOUT ME

My name is James Rudisill and I'm a 30 male MA graduate from the Royal Academy of Music in London. I have no clue what life will have in store for me, but I do know that taking every audition possible is my goal and to win a job in an orchestra playing french horn for a living.

I am also an outdoors, physical activities kind of guy and I blame it completely on coming from a highly athletic, and competitive family background. Sports I've been apart of include: Track and Field, Soccer (or Football), American Football, Rugby, Swimming, basketball, and baseball.

I love meeting new people and new countries cultures. In a way this is how an individual can grow as a person and become more aware of the world and who we are individually.

PHILOSOPHY

I've loads of these, but I'll just copy and paste a few from the ol facebook profile.

"A pain stabbed my heart as it did every time I saw a girl I loved who was going the opposite direction in this too-big world."
- Jack Kerouac

"The Quality of a persons life is in direct proportion to their commitment to excellence, regardless of their chosen field of endeavor."
- Vince Lombardi

"The sound of the horn is the soul of the orchestra"
- Robert Schumann

"A painter paints pictures on cavas, but a musician paints their pictures on silence." - Leopold Stokowski

"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." - Dr. Seuss

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hope that as a beginning user, people will allow me to use this service to aide in my audition experience and goal to win an orchestral job.

Once this is achieved and I can finally have a consistent place of residence, I intend to offer my future couch for the use of CS users travelling the world.

Interests

Music, all genre's, Rugby, American Football, Hiking, Camping, Swimming, and having fun in general.

Also, my professional music career is a BIG interest as well. Lots of practice and preparation goes into this outside of my recreational activities.
