Well....today I recorded the Zig**nerweisen again today, so now I have two (also Monday night, a student recital at my music school). I don't really know which is better. The student recital one I felt had more OOMPH! because I was pretty pumped for it and there was a big audience. The other may have been more technically sound. We even dragged in a few people standing around outside to be an audience, but it wasn't the same. Ahh, I don't know. It's hard to decide these things!

Tonight my quartet rehearsed with the ballet company (we're doing a collaboration). There's a tango, a serenata, and a Csardas. The first is a big group choreography, the second is 10 and 11-year-old girl/boy couples (they are very cute!) The last one is done with older (16, 17 years old) couples. It's a lot of fun. I got distracted a lot by wanting to watch the dancing instead of my music!

Another interesting thing that happened today. I opened up String Magazine and...there's a picture of me in it! Weird, huh? It's a paragraph about From The Top. But that doesn't happen everyday, so, that's neat.

I am working on the Bruch like crazy! And I'm pretty confident about it. The third mvt. is a LOT easier two years later.

And I had a singing lesson today. That makes me very happy. I think I'm getting better! Whopeee!
