I wish I could make it too, but it is just not possible. Please let us know how it goes. My guess is, it will be an amazing event.
I received the music I am to work on. I played through it and it is not crazy difficult, though some of it is pretty challenging. Tonight and into the weekend I will try and find performances of this stuff on line I can listen to and get the rhythm into my head.
This will be my very first classical ensemble playing mandolin. Heck, this is my first classical ensemble playing of any kind since I was a kid umpty ump years ago playing bassoon in the orchestra.
The hard part is going to be playing this stuff together with others, where I don't have control of all the variables, in front of an audience. And equally as scary for me, playing it in front of Jacob Reuven, who I will be meeting for the first time.
Also looking forward to seeing and hearing that Kerman mandolin up close.
