Amy Beach at the MacDowell Colony


I have been spending a lot of time with Amy Beach during the past few months, so I thought I'd put this really striking picture of her here, to serve as a reminder for me to keep practicing the difficult parts of her Violin Sonata carefully every day (and I may just be able to play them when the time comes to do so). This photo was taken around a hundred years ago at the MacDowell Colony, which has a stunningly-beautiful website.
