hi! fellow classical musician here :) recently i've been mostly doing digital music stuff, but your site and videos reminded me of how wonderful real live music is, especially with an ensemble. i appreciate your writings on the nuances of group performance and culture. wishing you and your husband the best on your music endeavours! 🎻
Hi! Thanks so much for writing, your words made me really happy. Pleased to make your acquaintance. I think digital music is such a marvel and a lot of hard work, but live music just hits different. At our last gig, they had playback of an album from a famous English pop orchestra and the recordings were so perfect that we thought it couldn’t have been played by real people…
…Still the client sought live musicians even though they could just download or stream the best orchestras in the world. Anyhow, I too got sick of piano when I was a kid and I think it’s because it was all solo. Other instruments are so much more fun to play in orchestras and such. All the best to you as well ♡
