Gotta Practice

Chamber Music assignments have finally been settled for this term. The class has more instruments than usual. An extra cellist has arrived in the form of a bassist. There wasn't any parts left for another bass player so she decided to play the cello instead.

I've been assigned the Martinu Nonet, Beethoven String Quartet, op. 18 #6 and Holst Jig, Op.29 #2 (All first movements) -- not too terrible when played slowly -- a terror to play up to tempo. It's metronome practice time!!!
