Viola at a Distance!

Quarantine has left me with more free time than I know what to do with, and I have found myself spending time with music that has often been in the back of my mind, but that I have not had an opportunity to work on seriously. Some are pieces I played as a student that I want a second crack at, some are pieces that I bought years ago thinking they would be fun to learn "someday," and some are pieces that I have practiced on and off for years but have never had a chance to perform. It is gratifying to finally have the time to work on them, but as the weeks wear on I find myself less motivated to seriously practice with no concrete goal.

So, one day I made a video of a movement from the first Reger Suite (which will be the next post) and emailed it to my friends and family, thinking I could make a newsletter kind of thing. Then it occurred to me that I pay for this website and pretty much never use it, and maybe I should embrace the technology of the early 2000s and put these videos in a blog! So here it is, Viola at a Distance.
