Played a bunch of sacred music Friday and Saturday night. I shared the first violin part with one other person, whose playing is very good; yet I now get the joke "How do two violinists play in tune? Shoot one of them."I should be nice, the music was actually very well selected, the solo soprano was excellant, and the conductor was cool.
Caved into my rising tide of estrogen and paid to see "Van Helsing" yesterday. Why can't there be a classical musician character like that? That tought yet sincere sub-for-hire with a mysterious past and a heart of gold? And turns into Scooby Doom whenever his stand partner turns the page too early?
