I was recently listening to some music—on YouTube, of course—in fact, some of my favorite pieces, and got to thinking that I never wrote that Helen, in her conductor days, ever featured some of these! (I could be wrong; it's been a couple of years since I went into the Helen story, but I remember mostly choral music being conducted by Helen. There was a set of symphonic variations by Brahms (the St. Anthony Chorale Variations), and the Overture to Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg. Then of course, there were a number of violin pieces: concertos, mostly, and other pieces featuring solo violin. The problem was that my musical experience was pretty small, Back in the early 2000s when I wrote Helen at Westfield, which was the story in which she did most of the conducting.
So the music that I put in the stories would have been too little for those who were interested in music, and too much for those who weren't interested in the music!!!
