listening in

So today I was listening to one of my good friends quartet rehearsal at Towson University. The members of the string quartet are Asia Douglas on cello, Joseph Lauver on viola, Katie Gray 2nd violin and Yuting Wu playing 1st violin, rehearsing Quartet No.6 Op. 6 Composed by Anton Dvorak. Listening to a group of colleges rehearsing rather than performing brings me to a different place. A familiar place though. Watching students trying to be an intuitive player rather just playing the notes, and listening to each others parts, and relating the viola's part with the 2nd violin's. And monitoring a rehearsal, you are bassically listening out for mistakes, and the minor and major details while they are playing. When i am just listening in, i feel more of a critic rather than an audience. But soon, i will be able to record them playing, and post it.
