The following thoughts occurred on March 9th, during our concert at VMI
Are we all ready to bow yet? I’m having trouble standing without falling over – Jeannette
You guys, wait for me. I’m still walking. Seriously, if you guys start bowing without me I’ll be really annoyed – Evelyn
Hm. Jeannette walks really fast on stage. How come I never noticed that before? It must be because she usually enters last at Herter. – Teresa
This is so great! What a great crowd! I’m so excited! Music is so wonderful! – Isaac
Ack, what was the name of Mozart’s money-hungry editor again? Hoff-something. The Hoff. David Hassel-hoff. I hope he says it because I hate not remembering. DMA = Doesn’t Mean Anything. – Jeannette
Hm. They’re not laughing at the same joke here. That’s so weird. – Evelyn
Can Jeannette see me? Maybe I should scoot my chair forward a little. Well, best not move when Isaac is talking. – Teresa
Shoot, I said “beautiful” twice. Arg. – Isaac
Do they want my A? Hey Evelyn! Do you want an A? Evelyn? Hey! I’m trying to whisper to you! – Jeannette
Is that a fly in here? – Evelyn
What’s going on? Everybody ready? It’s a fast cue, everyone hurry up and look at me – Teresa
Oh hooray, I don’t have to worry about scratching up this floor. There are so many holes already here. What a luxury! – Isaac
Whee!
Quick! Piano solo – turn the page! HURRY! – Teresa and Evelyn
Man, I want to do this again, now that I’m more familiar with this piano. I can’t BELIEVE I smeared the line in the 3rd movement. I ruined such an amazing moment! Aw, everyone is so nice. Look at them standing! That’s so sweet! – Jeannette
Standing ovation! Cool as a moose! – Evelyn
Well, that was fun! I’m hungry. Did they have cookies in the green room for us? – Teresa
Music is just the best! I’m so happy I get to do this all the time! – Isaac
