Monday
These next few weeks are going to be rough. I have to study for exams, take exams, finish paperwork, go to the doctor (twice?), pack for june's trip, take a driving course, and finish projects from the rest of my school courses.
It's going to be long, but only two or so more weeks and then I'm out of here. June will roll around in no time, bringing with her a very much needed break. I ought to get a calendar or something to keep track of all of this..
Yesterday, I went out to the mall, got a new book. the Cello Suites by Eric Siblin. I love love love the cello suites, and pablo casal's renditions are amazing, I love to see this book telling that story and explaining the sort of music theory side of it too. I'd read about a quarter of it in a cafe a few months ago, and loved it. Finally, I got it. I need to finish reading Bel Canto before I can resume that though..
Keeping on the topic of adding whatever I'm listening to at the end of my blog (just like the last post), Today, and for the past week, I've been listening to Emahoy Tsegué-Maryam Guèbrou. A pianist from Ethiopia, who's life I find very interesting. A pianist her whole life, then a nun, who stioll practiced 9 hours a day, and went on to become classicaly renowned. Her music is beautiful, Evening Breeze is my current favorite, it's so perfect, exactly what I look for in a song.
