This Saturday is the day of the annual concert for the orchestra I belong to. I'm especially excited because, this year, I have been given the opportunity to perform in the pre-concert show just before the main performance begins. It’s an honor to set the mood for the evening! The pieces we are performing are three popular movements from Tchaikovsky’s famous ballet, “The Nutcracker.” Our selection includes the light and delicate “Miniature Overture,” the beautiful and flowing “Dance of the Reed Pipes,” and the exciting Russian dance, “Trepak.” What makes this performance unique is that these movements are originally written for a large symphony orchestra. They rely on a huge range of instruments—strings, brass, woodwinds, and percussion to achieve their rich, vibrant sound. However, we are taking on the challenge of presenting them as a simple flute trio. This chamber arrangement is much more intricate than it sounds. We have to work hard to capture the complex harmonies and rhythmic energy of the original score with just three instruments. The “Trepak,” in particular, is a challenging piece that demands incredible speed and absolute precision to convey its vigorous, high-energy drive. We’ve been rehearsing diligently to ensure our three flutes blend perfectly and sound as cohesive and full as possible. I’m truly looking forward to sharing this intimate take on a familiar masterpiece with the audience this weekend.

*Challenges of Living with a Partner* Living with a partner can be a good experience, but it also has some challenges. When two people share a home, they must learn how to live together. This is not always easy, especially at the beginning. People have different habits. One person may like to clean often, while the other is more relaxed. This can cause small arguments. Another challenge is sharing responsibilities. Both people should help with housework, cooking, and shopping. If one person does more work than the other, it can feel unfair. Talking and making a plan can help avoid problems. Money is also an important topic. Partners must agree on how to spend and save. Some people like to spend money on fun, and others like to save. This can cause stress. Personal space is another issue. Everyone needs some time alone. Living together all the time can be hard if partners don’t respect each other’s space. In the end, living with a partner takes work. Good communication, respect, and teamwork are important. If both people try to understand and support each other, they can live happily together and solve problems more easily.
