100 Days of Practice, Day 52: Playing with a Full Deck
52 days, 52 cards: that's a full deck. My sister thinks I may not be playing with one, but who's to prove it?
Well, just to prove that maybe I am NOT playing with a full deck, I just got so excited by a new tune that I'm only beginning to learn that I sent an e-mail to Steven Karidoyanes, Musical Director of the Plymouth Philharmonic, to suggest that he consider adding a little Irish flute to the program some day... mine. Whoah. That is not a sign of my sanity, but it does prove that 52 days of practicing does enlarge one's cahoneys. (Sorry, I just looked that up on an English/Japanese translation site and word not found.)
One way to keep practicing super interesting: keep working on new things, challenges you haven't encountered yet, and do it every day.
Today, I started learning Carolan's Concerto. What a beautiful piece. All of this in prep for "The Beautiful Album," which we're going to start recording on September 11, a most auspicious day to do beautiful things. A day whose memory needs a little beauty.
Are you doing something beautiful and adventurous today?
