I’m just home from woodwind quintet rehearsal. We played all but one movement of our program, and I must say I’m rather exhausted. Of course we ran some parts a good number of times, so it won’t be quite as grueling when we do everything without repeating things. But what fun it is to play these works that are new to me! It’s tons of work, to be sure, but I love making music with friends. 🙂
Now I have some time off from rehearsals, but I have a whole lot of work to do on reeds. I really have to get things together so I don’t go entirely crazy the week of the recital. Besides, I have Cenerentola beginning November 4. I’ll need a batch ‘o reeds for that as well.
