Wow what a fun whirlwind we are living in! Sometimes life goes past so quickly that we forget to simply stop, admire and enjoy.
The colors outside are changing and there is a nip in the air. We embrace rehearsing our Christmas pieces with more enthusiasm as December nears. And we reluctantly start to say the “s” word….snow….it’s coming, there’s nothing we can do about it.
Anticipation needs to be appreciated and savoured. As musicians, we understand that rests and silence are an essential part of what we are creating together. We also build anticipation with crescendos and phrase shapes. And we know how to live in the moment of a resonant chord while looking ahead to the next section. We breathe and move forward.
