I want to do this piece one more time then I can retire happily. Well, not happily but happier. I have done it 3 times, I want to do it again. It is doubtful that will happen but as long as I can put on that reed I have a chance. It is a complete and total workout for everyone involved but so so worth it.

Enjoy, what a remarkable trip it is.

I missed posting the Violin concerto as it was presented on radio station; I actually heard IT, AND the #9! A pretty good weekend, music-wise!

Here's the playlist: https://weta.org/fm/playlists More after midnight.
