Romantic Flight from How to Train Your Dragon
So much gorgeous music comes out of popular movies!! I actually have never seen the How to Train Your Dragon series but I know most of the songs lol..
This piece was requested for a bride to walk down the aisle too! When researching it I realized that many people are doing so, I think it’s a great choice: simple and elegant 🙂

Carleton College Spring Orchestra Concert
I was asked to join the Carleton College Orchestra for their spring concert and I am so glad I did! The selection of music was amazing, the conductor James T. Chang was amazing, the musicians were amazing.. I almost cried about 4 times during the concert.
My two favorite pieces that we played are very very different from each other. The first is so interesting and inspiring!
Jessie Montgomery’s 2012 piece “Starburst”
We had a wonderful piano player who soloed Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2. It’s such a beautiful piece in every way, so moving!

Jacqueline du Pré movie: Hilary & Jackie
I watched this movie the other day about the famous British cellist Jacqueline du Pre and wow.. it was so good!! She was an incredible cellist best known for her Edward Elgar Cello Concerto performances.
I think that part of the curiosity about her is that she had to stop playing in her 20’s due to a debilitating nerve disorder. The Cello Museum has a wonderful article about her.
The movie Hilary and Jackie is from 1998 and definitely has some of that era’s styles. But overall this was a great portrait of her and I really wonder about some of the drama between her and her sister.. was it real?! You’ll have to watch it to see what I’m talking about..

The Red Violin
I just watched this movie from 1988 “The Red Violin” and it was so good!! It was a very inspiring story about a violin built in Italy in 1681.
The journey it takes across 400 years is amazing: going to a monastery in 1700’s Germany, to a virtuoso in Oxford, England, to communist China in the 1960’s (where it is almost destroyed for being Western), and then all the way to an auction house in Montreal where it sells for 2 million dollars.
The music was mostly performed by the great Joshua Bell. I highly recommend!
