It's All In the Timing

quatrain Clearly put - the star was up to no good. Musicians have an innate sense of time. The guests, notwithstanding, all understood their host - a conductor well-past his prime. Novice performers, the host chose just three for the opening event of the night. His niece, as it happened, was one invitee; he could still orchestrate who’s in the limelight. While each one of the fledgling young trio aced their solo in the gateway prelude, the simply grand - violin virtuoso excelled in his mellifluous etude. Not wanting to move on his host and niece, the star asked for an encore from her flute. Would she segue into his final piece? (in the vernacular of music’s astute). The auspiciousness of the occasion would exalt any young lady to conceit. With tempo way fast for the transition; it was clear she had been swept off her feet.
