Sometimes the accompanist has to follow the soloist's musical intentions, but at other times, when the musician is not very experienced, the accompanist needs to guide the soloist and make the best of a potentially tricky musical situation.

The party is over and it is time to clean up and pack up. Cioni seeks out Ilaria to talk about her situation.

At the party, tension is high among the friends. Harsh words are exchanged.

Cioni is very suspicious about Marta's true intentions toward Andrea. The others begin talking about their past relations and aspirations.

Andrea continues to be mistrustful of what Marta is intimating to him. She mentions a house she is borrowing ai Ronchi (in the Ronchis). This prompted us to want to find out where this place is and why she says it in the plural. Here (link to lesson) is what we found out.

The friends are taking care of the paraphenalia from their days at the theater. They muse on the past and the future.
