me!
we also went to a composition seminar by richard gill (conductor of all the meet the music programs). it was pretty good, a bit on the boring side though.
met chris gordon, whose french horn concerto will be premiered at one of the meet the music concerts soon!

I think Richard Gill conducts all of the Sydney Symphonia programs, not Meet the Music. :)
Anyway, I'm really looking forward to it! :D What day are you going on?

I know! And she had a crazy mole! (couldn't resist..im so shallow)
She was fair good though.

Not a massive fan of Baroque music, but it was nice to have something that wasn't purely instrumental!

Bahaha.
i was singing 'haaaa-reee auf gotte' the whole way home. which is also somewhat sad.
having those programs on the seats got me through that performance. i just read through all the german before they sung it, wondering if my pronounciation was right.

what school do you go to?
