Today's SCSO concert was wonderful. We played to nearly a full house and the mighty organ at Spivey Hall was magnificent. I feel especially accomplished this evening. I played the viola soli part at the beginning of the Copland piece the best I could have hoped for and we received many compliments from the conductor and other orchestra members. Overall my playing was a B+. I got lost in one section of the Poulenc, which is really the easiest of the 3 pieces we played. I played with confidence in places and definitely have a goal to work towards for the next concert.
My whole family came and we went to dinner afterwards. They are genuinely proud of me and that makes me feel good. I can't wait to get the next set of music. We only have 6 rehearsals before the final concert of the season. The music is going to be light, but that doesn't always translate to easy for me.
