With banjos on our knees...

Well...not exactly banjos, more like two violins, a viola and a cello... So, as you probably guessed, we're in Alabama! We're currently spending a month in Auburn, Alabama, as guest faculty quartet in residence at Auburn University. We're having an absolutely wonderful time! It's the first time we've been to Alabama, and we really love what we've seen so far. Last night we played a concert at the university, and it wasn't just a full house--there were people sitting on the floor in the aisles! It felt like the entire town turned out! This morning, we visited a music history lecture and talked about Schubert with the undergraduates. It seems like the students here are super bright and engaged. We're off to Birmingham tomorrow to do more schools concerts.
