;D Why am I smiling you ask, huddled refugees of SHF!?

I have just recieved the results of my four hour long Comprehensive Exam (in which I was tested in Score Identification (I was given a half dozen random pages cut out from various unidentified pieces and I had to name the probable composer, period, genre, and name of the composition), Music History (a couple 3-4 page essays on Franz Liszt), Music Theory (Fugue!), and Applied Music (an essay on proper left arm cello technique, and my dynamic plan of the third movement of Dmitry Shostakovich's Sonata in D Minor for Cello and Piano). And I have recieved A's from each of the three professors on my Master's Recital Committee, on the hour long recital I played Johannes Brahms Sonata for Cello and Piano in E Minor, Alessandro Marcello's Adagio from one of his Oboe Concerti, and Dmitry Shostakovich's Sonata for Cello and Piano in D Minor.

So what does this mean? I have just passed all of the requirements for the Master's of Music at the University of Houston. I'm graduating! WOOT!

The degree is for String Performance (cello), which is what I have been working on for the last 2.5 years! I'm so happy!

Right now I am preparing for the Audition to become a Doctoral Student next March, wish me luck!
