She's always a great musician, and so of course she was fantastic. I wasn't very familiar with this piece before, but now I'm sort of unsure about it. It's really beautiful, but the ending of the piece is very strange and just doesn't make sense to me. There's a snare drum that plays with the viola solo and it sounds really out of place. The rest of the orchestra is holding some long chord, I think an F chord or something, and then for some reason we play a beat of repeated 32nd notes on that chord. It's just weird and out of place to my ears. Tue, 17 Apr 2007 23:34 -0400
