Team ISEA Member a Finalist in Iowa's Got Talent Contest

I first met Dennis Fett when he worked as a substitute teacher in the Council Bluffs Community School District. Dennis moved on to a teaching position in Boyer Valley where he now has K-12 Music. Dennis has also served as association president!

Dennis Fett is an accomplished clarinet player who has a Bachelor of Music Degree and studied clarinet for six years with Professor Joseph Allard at the Juliard School of Music, New York City. Fett recently returned to the stage to be a finalist in Iowa's Got Talent contest to perform a clarinet solo called Immer Kleiner (always smaller) that requires Fett to start playing his clarinet all together and then gradually start taking it apart piece by piece, ending up playing only the mouthpiece.

Thanks for taking time to mention our friend Dennis. He does some interesting things, never one to sit and wish something exciting will happen to him. He just makes it happen. I hope his students follow his lead and learn that you can get places if you show initiative!
