The second quartet, second movement…Recitative and Romance. My coach said I must bare my soul, and bare I intend to…
but I feel as if I must be more emotionally raw than I am (happy life, really.) So I’m reading/watching/living vicariously as much as possible. A lot of Anna Akhmatova has been obtained, lemme tell ya.

Our string quartet coach asked us if we’d consider doing an all-Shosti concert this spring, playing the 2nd, 7th, and 15th.
There was definitely an audible squeal of joy, though maybe it was mostly from me:)
(we performed the 7th tonight to a small but really, really zealous crowd. Oh, love.)

Oh Number 7, whose rehearsals are the shining light of my college music life. Actually, they are the light of my life in general.
Whenever you’re feeling slightly frenetic, listen to the Fugue (the third movement.) Oh my goodness amazing.
I love the shosti.
