After a three-day weekend, it's hard to jump back into the swing of things. Thus, a delayed post. I didn't do much during the actual weekend, although I had some great conversations with friends and I've been inspired to do more creative work as well as written work during my time here as a Graduate Student.
I gotta tell you, these are the best years of my life.
Tuesday was spent primarily doing some writing and recording work for my Webern piece. I have a whole post about it.
It should have been presented on Wednesday morning, but we ran out of time, so it will be shown first thing on Friday. This gives me a little time to re-record some of my vocals.
We also discussed Haydn's "Joke" String Quartet in 302.
Wednesday was a lot more productive; I found around 10 sources for my Haydn paper (I need at least 20) and translated some poems by Goethe. I will admit, the poetry is a bit easier to translate than Faust.
In 604 we discussed Pergolesi and the intermezzo (deja vu... we discussed the same thing in 302 last week).
I also acquired Pauline Oliveros's Three Songs, the earliest work she ever got published. I'm excited to explore those in more detail... possibly even perform them?
