-The final show in SFPerformance's //Violin Virtuosi// series for this year; as with all the others, I attended with my mom, sitting in the same great center seats as last night. Between the slight change in the weather (a bit cooler today than yesterday) and a change of clothes (I opted for much lighter weight clothing tonight) there was no chance of drifting off to sleep mid concert tonight despite attending on a belly full of roast beef and a stiff pint of [[http://goodbeer.com/wordpress/big-daddy/|Speakeasy's Big Daddy IPA]] courtesy of [[http://www.tommysjoynt.com/|Tommy's Joynt]]. 
- 
-I thought that the most striking contrast in tonight's presentation compared with the [[2013-03-23_m_smlc|previous show]] was the starkly slower pacing of the initial Sonata and following Partita. Not that the //double// sections of the latter work were too slow -- //au contraire, mon frère// -- but that last night's entire show seemed to come off at an unrelentingly blistering pace that left my ears just a bit tired by the end. Such was not the case tonight; the slower beginning only served to prime my attention for the arpeggio runs of the closing Partita. 
- 
-Stephen Smoliar offered up another grumpy review for [[http://www.examiner.com/article/midori-s-second-solo-bach-recital|the Examiner]]. Noticing him dash out before Midori took her final bows both nights leads me to think he should hardly be one to criticize her for issues of pacing!
