One Week and Counting...

So there is one week until Solo & Ensemble contest. And for losers like me, that's one of the biggest events of the year, haha. As you know, I'm playing Saint Saens Cello Concerto in A minor, op. 33. Only the first movement though. And as of an hour ago, I have it all memorized and nearly up to tempo. I'm excited. I'm really hoping that I make it to state again this year. This is my last chance!

I've also decided that I'm going to Louisiana State University, and I've decided to double major in biology and music education (:

Currently, we're doing a production of My Fair Lady. The music is so beautiful, but I'm playing about 40 hours a week right now. As is is, my joints have problems, and since I've been playing so much, my thumb where it connects to my hand is bruised and swollen. It's weird!

That's all for now. I'll update probably... Next Saturday. Wish me luck!
