Re: Stravinsky Three Pieces

Funny you should ask. The first time I heard the Three Pieces (in high school) I hated them! Years later, the sheet music turned up in a big pile of scores at a yard sale. I bought the whole pile for one price and figured I'd re-sell a lot of that stuff, including the Three Pieces. But, because I loved the Firebird and some other Stravinsky music, I gave the Three Pieces a try.

They hooked me.

I've got several recordings now and those hooked me, too. They've also hooked Jane Feline -- but not my husband, an advanced amateur violinist who once walked out of a terrific performance of The Rite of Spring; and they didn't hook the late-lamented Ms. Shadow Cat, either. I think *she* wanted to hook *them* -- in a much more literal manner.
