A Peek into the Future

October 16, 2009 at 2:28 AM

The viola transcription for the S&P's arrived the other day. At Laurie's urging, I cracked them open and put bow to string on my favorite: the Chaconne. My question on 'what could be so difficult' was answered almost immediately. At the same time I saw the possibility that, yes, I can learn these before I reach 50, and what a journey the next 10 years will be!

But now is not the time. I have one year remaining to work on the Suites. There are only about 4 movements left to get under the hand so to speak. I can do this easily in a few months time. However I want to spend that "extra" time to re-visit movements that I began with on this journey. There is a depth that I haven't yet explored yet that deserves my time and focus. Not to mention techniques that need more work before I can even think of giving the S&P's a go.

So in the meantime, I will cherish my time with the Suites before moving on.
