Chamber Music Weekend, Part Deux

Today I played with my other chamber group - it was fun. Everything today was gig music. I won't be at the gig because we'll be on vacation, but it was fun to play. One of the members of the group plays violin, viola, and cello, and I think it's really amazing to watch him switch between instruments during the session. The other cellist in the group is amazing - she has been playing for over 60 years. I love listening to her and playing with her. She can't make the gig either so our versatile member is going to fill in on cello. Cello is the latest instrument he has started playing and he's doing really well. He was especially interested in going through the cello parts for the gig to make sure that he could play the cello parts.

I've got to get packing - instead of travelling my normal Tuesday - Wednesday, I'm leaving tomorrow morning. Yuck, getting up at 4am to catch a flight hurts.
