So, how is the Hunting Song by Mendelssohn turning out for Annette and Jeff? Who has made, in your estimation, the best progress? We discussed how we reach our performance goals, the role that metronomes plays in putting a piece together, and how our practicing approach between undergrad life and adult life has changed.

Please note this episode was recorded in July 2022, before Annette (and a little bit on Jeff's part as well) got attacked by a serious bout of adulting.

The Hunting Song is a piano work by Felix Mendelssohn, from Songs Without Words, Op. 19 No. 3.
