I competed in the semifinal round of the competition this morning! I played the second and third movements of John Duarte’s Homage to Lauro and the Allegro movement from J.S. Bach’s Violin Sonata in A minor BWV 1003. I did not make the finals, but two of my fellow students at UT, Chad Ibison and Janet Grohovac, did! I will be playing in a masterclass with Duo Melis this evening.
