they sang like wind

if i have to listen to another idiot play the piece of my soul like shit one more time, i'm going to break someone. possibly their face. i admit, my technique is crap. it is. i know this. but i know i have soul, passion, and i can't bear to hear music played like a machine. and i get frusterated. uch is so meticulous with my technique, and i see my fellow cellists get away with it. hyperextended thumbs, both left and right hands. rigid bow arms. poor bowhold. flat or hyperextended fingers on the left hand.

i know it. my music will fly one day.

to cheer myself up, its time for quizzes.

If I were a Dead Russian Composer, I would be Dmitri Shostakovich!

I am a shy, nervous, unassuming, fidgety, and stuttery little person who began composing the same year I started music lessons of any sort. I wrote the first of my fifteen symphonies at age 18, and my second opera, "Lady Macbeth of the Mtsensk District," when I was only 26. Unfortunately, Stalin hated the opera, and put me on the Enemy Of The People List for life. I nevertheless kept composing the works I wanted to write in private; some of my vocal cycles and 15 string quartets mock the Soviet System in notes. And I somehow was NOT killed in the process! And Harry Potter(c) stole my glasses and broke them!

I think he pushes you because he sees your passion. A loving father disciplines his child because he loves her. He wants you to be better because he knows you've got it in you. Learn these rules, study these mechanics, and your soul will soar all the higher for it. That's what I believe.

Holy Moses tap-dancing with Salvador Dali. That's the first time I've ever seen Jillian referenced as a fundamentalist in my entire life. Ever. Also, hells yes you'd be Shostakovich. You'd be a cheeky little anti-Communist in musical form.
