	un poco mosso by Daniel Ma, Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis Return to The Bards of Baylor I remember that evening when over a plate of reheated salmon, you lamented the neglected dignity of your beloved cello. How the adagio in the Beethoven 'Emperor' wasn't just a sparkling keyboard, but a cress between that sparkle and an imperceptible tenderness punctuating itself within the arpeggios. Just listen, you said, that's not simply a dominant and a fifth trotting to the weary grasp of theory, but a muted voice, stretched above its register, plaintively pleading to be heard. I remember that evening still, now swallowed by the harsher tune of sirens, pagers, and overhead alarms – the sigh of ventilators gasping over heart monitors. I sit quietly beside your bed and listen to the steady rhythm of your breathing.
