今週末は充実したような、のんびりしてたような、なんか心地良い週末でした。

やっぱ先生がいないとなんか平和。でもたぶん帰ってきたらいなかったときの分までintenseなんだろうな。(--;)

早くLAに帰りたいです。早く夏になってほしいです。

あ、今日はうちのmusic school が主催しているadopt-a-student programと言うイベントに参加した。its an event the directors set up so we can schmooze with the wealthy patrons that donate money to our school. its funny being a musician. we're always surrounded by rich people who support our art, and we're always get a little tease of what it would be like to be wealthy. but the thing is, we'll never be rich. its a tease.

im not saying that wealth is important, because its not. i just found it really funny and ironical how the music (well, mostly classical music) world works.

でもなぜ今日そのプログラムのことを書いたかと言いうと、そこでちょっと嬉しい事があったから。

okay, so every student that went there had to prepare some music to perform for the patrons. naturally, everybody half assed it. like my flutist and i only rehearsed for a hour or so before we performed it, and i learned my piece like yesterday. it wasnt a star performance, but it was acceptable. usually, at these things, the patrons dont really know much about music (from my experience) but 今日は珍しく聞く耳がある人達がいた。

i dont want to patronize myself, but if i were to name my strengths in my playing, i would say it is my musicality and my quality of tone. i find that a lot of people think technicality is the crowning achievement of playing. dont get me wrong, accuracy is very very important in performing, but i feel like those things can come with discipline and hard work. musicality isnt really something that can be taught, it has to come from the heart, and for me it comes a little more naturally than others. and i just think people dont work enough on their tone. ya, beauty in music comes from musical lines and phrasing and stuff, but it all starts with the sound that comes out the instrument you know.

anyways, so, i met these ladies today that came up to me and commented on my tone. i was really surprised and quite impressed. it takes a really good ear to recognize it, let alone appreciate it.



His musicianであることに感謝を感じる最近このごろです。
