It seems I picked up a cold as an unexpected birthday gift but despite feeling a bit under the weather I wasn't about to miss tonight's  recital featuring violinist Susan Britton and pianist Olga Gorelik.

And I wasn't disappointed. This evening's recital featured a variety of music and moods spanning 150 years and was full of soulful playing on the part of both musicians. The result was delightfully blended and very passionate.
