A Year in Music

Last night I finished my performing schedule for 2014, barring any last-minute calls. It's been a busy and exciting year, with a lot of great pieces from the standard repertoire as well as a lot of unusual and unfamiliar music. I've had a great time.

A few weeks into the year I decided to keep a running list of the music I had the fortune to perform, and I think it's at least a little bit interesting. When I indicate that I played something more than once, that was on separate occasions, usually with different groups. Multiple performances, as with a run of ballet or a series of four concerts of the same program, only counts as once.

Anyway, here's my list:
