"Sound it Out" is a video project I started for my own amusement. In each video, I look at a piece of visual art and make a tune on the violin on the spot to describe it. Today, I'm playing a beautiful piece by a dear friend, Richard Malinsky. The work is #4 from the Seven Seas Suite.
Richard and his wife Barbara are some of the biggest forces of support and encouragement of me as an artist. (They are very involved at a concert series where I play) I not only felt very excited when Richard asked me if I would play one of his works, but also felt a bit nervous to want to represent his work well. I mean, it is the artist of the work, AND a dear friend, you know? (and... Sound it Out is a bit of a comedy, you know?)
However! I took the challenge on, without fear, quarantine-style(nowhere to go). And here's the result. Let me know what you think!
