Miming

[rhythmaning]

I have just heard that the string quartet that played at Obama’s inauguration were miming!

Well, I am not shocked in the slightest. I was amazed they were playing outside at all – as the presenters kept telling us, it was very cold. Yo-yo Ma said “It was wicked cold!”

I was surprised they weren’t wearing hats and gloves – it must have been hard to play in that temperature at all.

I really liked the piece - although it leant heavily on Copland.
