On Monday the 19th, our plane landed in Zurich. We had just returned from Vienna, but the intense music time was not over.
March 19-22 was Music Festival week at BFA. For a reminder of what happens, see my posts from 2011 or 2010.
This year, our string judge was Florian Mall, a professional cellist and teacher from Basel. He worked well with students of all ages. I was really excited for our cello students to have an opportunity to gain some experience with a real cellist (as opposed to the novice cellists that Marit and I are).
He surpassed our expectations and wowed us by sight-reading violin music – in the correct octave!
On Thursday night, the most excellent performers from all instruments performed in the Honors Recital. The complete list is below, should you want to watch the whole concert in order.
We’re proud of our students! They have worked really hard this year!
