Violinist Victoria Pearson dreams of attending Johann Conservatory of Music in New York City for graduate school. As the oldest of five sisters, she hopes to escape her Midwestern college town and hectic family situation to fulfill her passion in life—music. But when she decides to participate in Belton University's Concerto competition to bolster her chances of acceptance, Victoria finds herself competing against her sister Adrienne and lifelong cellist friend Jerry Chang. This sets in motion a rivalry that questions the roles of sisterhood, friendship, and maybe love.
Victoria wants to maintain the rigors required of a professional classical musician without losing her family and friends, not to mention her sanity, in the process. The demands of her large family might hinder her ability to achieve her dreams. What sacrifices will she make to reach her goals, and are they worth the cost? A new, twenty-first-century generation of little women takes the stage in A Change in Tune.❥ PURCHASE LINKS*: Goodreads | Amazon | Barnes & Noble | Bookbub | Google Books
Coming from a very musical family myself I thought A Change in Tune wouldn’t capture my imagination, but I was wrong! I identified so much with Victoria and the high bar she sets for herself. Once upon a time I too was a high achiever until life slapped me in the face, and I realized, much like Victoria, that being perfect is not what it’s cracked up to be, especially if it comes at the cost of relationships.
With all the sisters, five in total, there is very much a Little Women feel to me (and yes, there is a time this is brought up and that just happened to be one of my favorite parts!) and at times it was hard to keep them all apart, but the further you read, the more you can tell them each apart by their own unique attributes, personalities, and instruments. I loved the family dynamic as a whole and the pride in their musical heritage. I greatly understand and appreciate that fact and wish I could trace my family back as far as Pearson family was able t0.
Though Idid have a hard time getting into the narrative at first I am so thankful that I stuck it out! I learned an aspect of music that I hadn’t been previously acquainted with, which I enjoyed adding to my musical knowledge, and can’t wait to see where the author takes The Strings of Sisterhood next! A sweet and musical family that is endearing and entertaining!
