Very scaryJanuary 24, 2007 at 6:32 PM The director of a small orchaestra cornered me at my club on monday, and gave me copies of the 2nd violin part for two of the pieces they are playing, Greig's Norwegian Dance and an arrangement of meolodies from My Fair Lady. "Work on these a bit then come join us" he says. The idea is pretty terrifying, but I'm going to give it a go. The pieces look doable, but there are a quite a few double stops and I just started working on those. I'm afraid I might make quite the racket on those passages, so I may have to rewrite them as single notes if that's allowed. Geronimoooo!From Stephen Brivati
greetings,Posted on January 24, 2007 at 8:25 PM well, how small is the orchestra? Double stops are usually played divisi and its better to leave things out than play out of tune ;) Bets of luck, Buri From Christian Abel
I just found out that I'll be playing the top note from the double stops. A beig relief. Now the part seems simple when I look at it with fresh eyes. This should be fun. Pratice just took on a whole new dimension of seriousness as well, which is pretty good for the concentration.
