Don't Mess with Messiaen!



This is the last piece from the recital, and Libby thinks it's the best of the bunch. From baroque Biber to modern Messiaen, Catholic composers for the violin enjoyed a mini revival last Saturday. This piece was recently rediscovered, and just published last year, so this is the local premier!

ETA: Trip taped the performance, so all close-ups are his fault :) .

She's so lovely, Macbeth, and I know how proud you are. :)

And, yes, brothers are veterans at revealing their sister's close-up angles, aren't they? LOL
