I say this because today, all the violinists I heard were incredible virtuoso. I loved it! Lots of energy. The repertoire was great. They all played pieces that I absolutely love and play. I am always learning from these talented competitors. One of them actually played his own piece! I was very impressed. It&#8217;s pretty rare that a candidate plays his own composition in a competition. Genius composition! So complex and virtuosic. Afterwards I went to congratulate him and asked him some questions. I was curious to know how he memorised everything. It was a fairly long piece with lots of fast and difficult things the whole time. He simply said that when you are the composer, of course it will be a bit easier to memorise because you have a much better understanding of the music theoretically. Though he admitted that it was a very hard piece to memorise. I was truly impressed and inspired with all this today. Maybe one day I will compose my own violin piece! It&#8217;s something I really would love to do.&#8221;<br \/> <\/em><\/div>\n<div><em>Isabella<\/em><\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.concoursmontreal.ca\/permanent\/en\/concours\/Isabella-Perron.asp\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">About Isabella Perron<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Isabellainfo\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Facebook Page<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A young violinist gives us her daily thoughts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1171,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1197","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-non-classe-en"],"acf":[],"featured_media_src_url":"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/isabella.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.concoursmontreal.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1197","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.concoursmontreal.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.concoursmontreal.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.concoursmontreal.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.concoursmontreal.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1197"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.concoursmontreal.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1197\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.concoursmontreal.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1171"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.concoursmontreal.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1197"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.concoursmontreal.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1197"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.concoursmontreal.ca\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1197"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
