Last Quarter News

Had a terribly busy 4th Quarter for 2012. Chamber Music Class tried to do Suk's Meditation on Wenceslas. Here's a good version. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBALLlTrzUc. I didn't take a video of our performance. Cellos were doubled and a bass was added in our group. Since the high notes on the cello were hit or miss, the other cellist played it solo so we wouldn't be quite so obviously out of tune. My FSU class in Information Needs for Young Adults was the hardest course (in terms of work) I have taken so far. It required reading 11 books, writing a 10 page term paper comparing two books(I did mine on Persepolis vs. Tina's Mouth), a book talk, compiling a poetry anthology and group project of creating a week's worth of lesson plans surrounding the book "Swamplandia".
