One of my favorite memories as a traditional student at UWM back in the 1970s we hearing the FAQ in concert and taking their course on string quartets in performance in the recital hall. !!

It’s Our Second Anniversary: To Celebrate Please Enjoy This Version of Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring!

And I wasn’t sure what I was going to do or where I was going when I published the first blog pieces here on March 20, 2020…but it has proven to be challenging, rewarding, and a lot of fun. And I’ve met and made some new friends in that time! And thank you to all of our readers, supporters, and commenters. I am looking forward to An Intuitive Perspective’s next year!!

P.S. Stravinsky is my favorite composer! And the Londoners do a great job.
