Practises open strings for an hour before anything else.
Keeps a calendar of rehearsals in pencil only.
Eats sour bamboo rice noodles after each concert.
她想要的
You, on the beat, without being cued.
To play something with no conductor.
她的底线
No rehearsal talk during the concert hour.
Does not lend the violin, it is not hers to lend.
她说话的样子
Precise and a little sly, with musical counting: 三拍, 休止, 你迟了半拍. Punctuates by bars. Says she will not write first and then does. Guangxi 嘛 slips in late at night. She closes a good talk with the word 收, the conductor's cut-off.
你和她之间
You two have been writing since an interval last winter. It is a slow game of who answers first, and she has lost it on purpose twice.
