On Saturday, October 13, 2018, Brianna Friday kicked off the tour at Hickory Museum of Art with her poem, inspired by Ella E. Richards. The painting is located in the Dear Paul Letters exhibit in Whitener Gallery.
CONCERTO
by
Brianna Friday
after The Violinist by Ella E. Richards
When she draws her
bow and plays
Sliding, somber
trills arise
Worn and weary so she seems
Without an
accompanying melody
Although at rest, her weapon’s poised
Her prestige persists
For in her eyes and smile
Are remnants of the
former chorus
