Yesterday afternoon was the last of the three concerts premiering my String Quartet No. 2 "Landscapes." Yes, I've decided to append that nickname officially to the quartet. It was an excellent finale to the series as it was in, by far, the best space acoustically--a large church hall with a glorious high wood ceiling. Also, my old friend Richard Volet was there to capture the performance in a recording that I will undoubtedly share with you in the coming weeks. The Pro Nova Ensemble were very comfortable with the piece by this point and gave a very fine performance and I gave my best impromptu introduction. So a good time was had by all and we retired to a White Spot for lunch afterwards.
For today, let me just share a few photos I have taken in the last few days.
