Its evident that we have what it takes to perform Bruckner at an outstanding level. However, it seems too easy to slip into an “auto-pilot mode” and accept the occasional missed entrance or ambiguous transition between different sections. Last night, the viola section missed a solo by eight measures because we accidentally counted in 4 instead of 2. We all laughed after Mr. Edwards pointed out our mistake. I think it will be a great concert nevertheless.

Its hard to believe that this will be my last season concert with PYP. Six years ago, I was still playing lobby concerts in YSE with Mr. Hubbard. “Courage violas!” …. “Mo-ther” I think we’re all going to miss Mr. Hubbard.
