I finished the Shostakovich Op. 34 tonight! I found it a bit of a anti-climax, but that may have been my sight-reading limitations.
Looking through recent experiences, I especially loved No. 22, played on Monday. Adagio is always welcome when plodding through music for the first time, but that wasn’t the only charm of this piece. I found it utterly beautiful.
I’m eager to hear what those who played through the entire opus thought of this month. Looking forward to our discussion!
Love, Helen
