“An amazing collection of short stories based on Liesel’s experiences pertaining to playing violin outside of her academic and orchestral experiences. The introduction encapsulates Liesel’s public musical exhibitions in the US, England and France and provides both a bridge to the short stories and a glimpse of her determined, creative, and flexible personality. The short stories are engaging, while providing completely different renderings of her public exhibitions. They are refreshing, complete, funny, insightful and written with Shakespearean poise.”
