maddnes!

As some of you may already know I recently joined a flute choir.

I have not played in about 6 years... well played while reading music anyways. i would sometimes break it out and play from memory or by ear.

So the other day I recieved my music via e-mail from the artistic director...



ok people if you have ever read music you know how intimidating this is to see after not having read any music in a long while ...

none the less i still procceded to go to practice (with people who have been playing this piece for over 3 months!) i felt sooooooo out of my element.
after that first practice i was SO HUMBLED i was discouraged .. and i almost wanted to quit.

so instead of quiting i got a lesson teacher and had my first lesson the very next day.

after about an hour of playing with her all the knowlege i hadnt used in so long started flooding back to me. I can now sight read again and though the pieces i can play well arent all that complicated i know i will get there in time.

and hopfully next season i will be able to keep up with the others in flute choir.
