Musical Interlude: Listened to some of this today, while finishing up what work I needed to do. I don't listen to much Bartok, and I probably should.

today's #CharityShop find: Set of parts for Arnold #Schönberg - #StringQuartet in D Major ("number 0" - no opus number). He wrote it at age 23 under the influence of #Brahms and very clearly #Dvorak's American quartet. And I'm loving it.

added an update to my recent post on the #quartets of simple character: https://proseandpassion.blogspot.com/2025/05/more-quartets-of-simple-character.html #ChamberMusic #antiquarian #stringquartet
I'm rather a simple character when it comes to playing #ChamberMusic, so the #quartets of simple character are just right for me ... Also, it always amazes me to see all those publication efforts supporting #amateur music making way back when. Before the telly and other distractions took over. https://proseandpassion.blogspot.com/2025/05/more-quartets-of-simple-character.html #stringquartet #classicalmusic #DoYourThing

Day 5 (Jan 5): BAROQUE, PART 2 – "On a Winter's Day"
On Day 5 I added a prelude, improved the melody lines and completed the buildup and finale. I also touched up the production.
It was nice to get a night's rest to contemplate the final touches - and it's a good feeling to finish the composition.
But now I have no idea what I'm going to write tomorrow!
