Violin Sonata

Farflung correspondents, 

Having been asked on rather short notice by another amateur classical musician, a violinist, to accompany her in Francesco Veracini (1690-1768)'s violin sonata in E minor (actually an arrangement of a trio sonata), I didn't want to say no. This is a major challenge for me, but I want to be able to do this kind of thing, so I've accepted. The piece isn't extremely difficult, but it's not exactly easy either. The performance, for anyone local in Portland with free time and inclination, will be Wed., Feb. 28 at 10 AM at the Community Music Workshop, 3350 SE Francis, between Holgate and Division. Wish me luck, I may need it. 

David
