Well, this was Duo Odéon’s last week of rehearsals until our recording session in July! I came back to Portland, OR from June 26 - July 6, where we had another Northwest Previews interview at All Classical Portland, this time with Andrea Murray. It was a lovely experience! We also performed at a retirement center and at a neighborhood coffee shop called Taborspace. I stayed with my friend Kate again (the AirBnb host near Reed College), and it was wonderful to see her again!

At Taborspace, we gave the first public performance of the first and third movements of Antheil’s Violin Concerto, and everyone seemed to enjoy it. We couldn’t play the whole thing due to time constraints - the entire concerto is around 45 minutes long.

The Coffee with Antheil concert was a nice change of pace from the normally-formal evening recitals.
