music...sweet harmonies
Today I have found myself completely immersed in music, and it gives me hope that the joy that I find in music is returning to me. Balance is coming back to me after last fall's crazy semester.
I spent quite a bit of quality time with my viola today and am hoping to increase that time even more as the days go by. Just this week I finalized my recital program, and I decided to add another small piece by Rebecca Clarke called Morpheus, which is a sweetly mysterious piece for viola and piano - hauntingly beautiful.
This evening I'm listening to some Indigo Girls and remembering why I like them so much, even though I don't know much of their music. I was listening to a song called Love Will Come to You which is full of very rich harmony, and decided that it was time to update this blog. Of course that has nothing to do with anything, but I guess I was just reminded that I hadn't really rambled on that much about music lately.
Ok, that was a scary-looking sentence grammar-wise, but I'm leaving it there.
I took a break from serious reading for 24 hours and squeezed in an Agatha Christie novel, Peril at End House. However, I have to say that I figured out who did it before Poirot...
Subsequently, I went back to my most current read - Reading Lolita in Tehran, which is a very interesting novel by Azar Nafisi... hard to describe, but a very compelling read.
Oh, on a side note - the Indigo Girls live version of Galileo is EXCELLENT :-)
