still feeling downbeat
2 years ago
it’s never gonna happen, even after all the videos I’ve studied (yer put yer left hand here) and the feet floor-charts I’ve amassed. The problem is that I don’t have an orchestra, so this would have been a better, more realistic goal. Am I depriving the world of my musical genius/talents ? I suppose so, but what can I do ? Not everyone gets a podium place.
Here’s a picture of a frustrated cellist. (Maybe they support cellsea).
feeling downbeat

well, it would be a bit different to standing in front of the speakers waving a knitting needle. 80 or 100 musicians in front of you, waiting for a downbeat, a flick of your wrist or the nod of your nose, and 2000 people behind you, experiencing the music through your movements. What a responsibility ! I remember an audience booing the conductor at a performance of Mahler’s 4th, and on another occasion, the rostrum came loose, causing Daniel Baremboim to flail around drunkenly until he regained his balance.
