I agree with your friend Brenda. This experience, and others like it, as hard as they are...are just molding our children into resilient human beings.

I played very badly and it was embarrassing. But it was valuable on several levels. First, it gave me an idea of how to tell when a piece is ready for performance. Second, it provided incentive to always be prepared for everything. Third, it pointed out some technical problems that I had to beware of in my playing. <br /><br />I love the approach of "play it 15 times perfectly." I still do that when I'm learning a piece!<br /><br />I'm glad she didn't quit on a low point!Cyndiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01160008003292716249noreply@blogger.com
