Recital Fall 2006: Prelude

And... I've finally uploaded a low-bitrate recording of two tracks of my playing at the Fall '06 recital. Live-recordings, dry hall. Here is the Prelude to Bach's Cello Suite No. 3 in C major transcribed for viola:

I am giving much thought to mixed-media presentations - on the serious side, I am considering having a recital next semester with projections of selected art for each movement. On the less serious side, I like the idea of having a particular food eaten with each movement.

For this particular movement, I recommend green olives and a light beer, and if you feel up to it, a rehash of the accompanying PowerPoint Presentation.
