Note of intent

“In the early 2000s, I was a viola student in the classical music program of the University of Campinas, in Brazil. I was then part of a string quartet whose name I no longer recall, along with other students. I hardly remember our rehearsals and concerts or the repertoire we played, with the exception of one piece: the String Quartet no. 8 in C minor op.110 by the Russian composer Dimitri Shostakovich.
I remember this piece as an emotional and physical challenge. I remember my body crossed by intensities and nuances hitherto unknown. I remember the difficulty to stay seated playing such a passionate score, the intense looks we exchanged between musicians, the silence that reigned at the end of the play, in concerts and rehearsals.”
