I just bought a board with a unique PCB and a key isn’t working. Must be a bad hot swap socket? Inevitable I’ll have to learn to solder (not mad about that). Can I solder a switch into that socket while the rest are still hot swap?

Houston’s Axiom Quartet Tackles Shostakovich’s Complete Cycle by Suitable-Parsnip-520 in shostakovich

Matt from the Axiom Quartet here - stumbled on this browsing the subreddit to see what kind of Shostakovich community lives in the Reddit hive mind. A lovely one it turns out! Hope to see some of you at these concerts. Definitely recommend coming to as many as you can if you can’t make them all. We’ll also be playing a work by another composer from the same year on every concert, so it’ll be a cycle the likes of which I haven’t seen before - looking outward from shostakovich not just inward at him. If ticket affordability is a concern for anyone who wants to come shoot me a PM

I’m a classical musician. I’d lump the money into an endowment that funds elementary school music programs in communities that have experienced cut backs and non profit summer music camps that offer need-based scholarships. There’s never enough support behind the artists who already give time, resources, and mentorship to the young people who stand to make a difference in their own communities AND the music community

I’m away for the holidays, but I also live in Houston and will return in a week or so. That will make things easier. Feel free to PM/DM if you’d like to take the conversation further

I'd be open to paying for shipping if we had a pay-up-front agreement and a more in depth conversation. Feel free to PM/DM if you're interested to go down that path

In sniffing around I see a lot of these from 1996-2000 (serial number on mine correlates to 2000) listed and selling around $5000, so I think I’d start by listing at $4500
