Yesterday
we had a second rehearsal with my quintet “Flying high” for my upcoming concert
14th of May. In the evening I went and listened to the chamber choir Näsin Ääni
rehears my music as well. But it was so strange, the choir was yesterday
evening very different compared to what it is like normaly, somehow it seemed
to be harder than usual for the choir to keep in tune and other weird stuff like
that. But maybe the “long break” (as they didn’t rehears last Wednesday,
because it was Vappu eve) was present in yesterday’s rehearsal.

Today I
had piano class with my teacher Risto Kyrö and after my class Harri Hautala, the main music critique
from the local paper Aamulehti called
me and asked if I could come for an interview tomorrow! I’m so excited!
Hopefully the interview will help to get a larger audience to my concert, which
would be really nice! (The concert is for free, so I don’t hope to get more
money, I just hope people will come and listen to my great music and maybe my
music will touch someone, that’s all I’m asking for!)
In the
afternoon I had my piano student and the rest of the evening I was working on
my thesis, because I should be handing in a preliminary version to my teacher
tomorrow and the deadline is on Friday the 9th of May!
Oh yes
I got an other nice email: I was also accepted for masters in composition at
the University of Gothenburg as well! Now I’m considering which option to go
with, but at the moment Malmö still feels a bit closer to my heart, simply due
to intuition and how at home I felt in the city. Some cities simply immediately feel like home and others
just never will feel like a place for you and I know that very well by now, so
I think I will trust my intuition.
