OH MAN OH DUDE YOU DON'T-
Ok, so for the first time in my non-existing music career, I am a bit worried!
Do you hear that? Oh man.
So you see here, today I received the flute piece that I will be needing to play for the audition to get into the high school wind ensemble.
It is Chopin's "Variations On A Theme By Rossini".
It
well it's
it's
hard.
I haven't played a flute piece that was hard for me in quite some time!
Not since I was a little 5th grade nugget who couldn't even pronounce the titles right.
Not to mention, my teacher was explaining wind ensemble to us as the "band for those who want to really test themselves and aim higher than they're used to."
So then, what if I really really want to get into this band, but there is someone else who really really wants and deserves it more than me? If I manage to pull through this piece and somehow make it in, what if someone who would be more wind-ensemble-material didn't make it?
Bluh.
I really think the only reason I'm even trying out is because I want to over-achieve. I want to be better than other people.
"Even if I suck, if I'm in wind ensemble, shouldn't that make up for all of it?"
Still, the thing is, if I have to grovel over how hard this song is, imagine the kinds of things I'll have to actually play if I make it in!
And to top that off, I'm going to be responsible for my position in marching band as well, which is still giving me anxiety attacks.
oh well.
FLYING FOOP I DREW MMOREE STUAFF STOO

ReplyDeleteLOL.
Don't worry about band class. As someone who has sat in every orchestra seat known to man, it is not so much the seat as the experience
