Days 17 & 18: To Arms! (featuring Kari Clifton!)

so i know the song is kind of rough... but let me explain the process that led up to it.

i had a cello quartet piece that i had been sort of composing since January but never quite finished. i had never tried to play the piece. i asked Kari if she would like to be featured in a recording. she wanted to. we decided to record today. i finished a rough draft of the sheet music today at 12:30. we met and played through the parts for the first time for a couple hours. i was a jerk and gave Kari the harder melody line to play. smiley face. i knew she could do a lot better with it than i could. sorry Kari! we took an ice cream break. we recorded the parts. we had fun. our playing was rough. i am ok with it.

thanks Kari for being a part of this and i have to say awesome job taking on the super-high melody line!

(perhaps sometime in the future we will rerecord this piece and do better with it.) dan
