First viola concert

I am lucky to be playing my new viola in the Southern Crescent Symphony Orchestra. Our upcoming concert will be at Spivey Hall and will feature 3 different organ concertos. The organ at Spivey is fabulous and the acoustics in the hall are the best in the country according to many artists. I left rehearsal feeling the best about my viola playing yet-compared to last week's rehearsal where I could do nothing right. I can now play most of the music and my intonation is improving every week. Playing at Spivey is a unique experience. I can hear myself as though I were the only person playing, but at the same time it is so much easier to match intonation to my stand partner who is wonderful. There is something magical about the hall for instrumentalists.
