I guess It's been about a month since I've started Lipinski. I'm now reading the piano score instead of the violin part. This is something I always do because I like to know where I belong with the orchestra, usually if the orchestra score is around I'll read through that a few million times or at least it seems that way. I like to know what everybody is doing, and it helps me figure out where I can put my own personal touches. (Rubato) I'm still on the first movement. I think I'm making good timing, the first movement is where the real meat is. I'm starting to notice that what this piece lacks in melodic expression comes out through the cantible singing style of the whole piece. It's completely technical in a standard sense, but it's pretty to listen to. I haven't found any recordings of this piece though besides the one on Youtube. I'd love to hear someone else play it. Unfortunately that's what happens when you play a rarely played piece.
