This is a relatively simple classical piece. However, that doesn’t mean it hasn’t taken thousands of hours to be able to play. It started with tinkering on the keys as a child.
Tinkering on the keys is something. It leads to desire for more, which leads to more. Short exercises that seem impossible, became familiar. Notes and symbols that would make me cry for not being able to immediately understand what to do, lead to me understanding. I kept going because there was beauty in every step.
That’s all that motivates me today, still.
We are living through uncertain times, and I can’t help being brought back to my passions. I am glad they have taken root because they are grounding me.
What may have started small, but is grounding you now?
Sending more of that,
Kadie
P.S. Special thanks to Ondine Young for helping me with voicing 🎶
