If You Could Ask Any Composer One Question…

Dear Viola family!

Imagine you could sit down for coffee (or tea… or beer ) with any composer in history.

This week’s discussion is part fantasy, part musicology:

If you could ask any composer one question, who would it be—and what would you ask?

• Would you press Bach on interpretation or ornamentation?
• Ask Shostakovich how he really felt during censorship?
• Or quiz Florence Price on what she envisioned for the modern performer? 

Big or small, practical or philosophical—your question reveals your curiosity and passion. Let’s see where it leads!
