“
This thought crossed my mind today while practicing for my upcoming solo recital on Feb. 21st:
“My relationship with String of Pearls is what I imagine raising an indoor tiger cub must be like:
I have such a deep love for the piece and have spent so much time with it that I somehow feel like the relationship has become personal. Whenever, I’m working on it I feel comfortable and at home. However, I know that at any moment in performance, there is still that 10% of distrust that could completely destroy me.”
I guess this means I haven’t spent enough time yet.
