Oslo In April

by John Slade

This novel, set in Norway, follows eight musicians from early morning on the first Saturday in April, to the symphony concert which they perform that evening in the Oslo Concert House. They live very different lives and confront a range of challenges through the day, but each musician is directed toward that special moment in the evening when, together, they will enter the musical world that they deeply love.

This was a quick and interesting read. I liked the overall idea...it was about several members of an orchestra preparing for a big concert that night and how the stories of their lives' present, past, and future intertwined with the music, their surroundings, and each other.
