This episode comes from the Youtube Livestream on Dec 11 2025. It starts off on a slower more melancholy note, with a nice lyrical arco line that serves to tie together some of the pizzicato and staccato meanderings. The next piece has a bit more depth, but keeps in the same melancholy meandering vein, with a more dream like quality to some of the Arco figures. The third piece is more driving, with an uplifting repeated Arco figure that’s really amplified by the staccato bass and the whole piece goes to some nice places. The fourth piece and final piece starts off fairly meandering, but then eventually finds some interesting darker and more mysterious spots.
