“Vivaldi is right behind Bach in my book!”

+++++++++++++++

For me it’s Bach and Tchaikovsky. I wish I had had access to classical music when I was young (CW all the way) so it wasn’t until I was in college that I heard this incredible Bach piece that was so beautiful, I was hooked. But if I were a more proficient pianist, I’d tackle more Tchaikovsky.

As a very new violinist (4 mo now?) who is still making sounds similar to howler monkeys being tortured, I’m currently tackling “Hickory Dickory Dock.” Hahahahhaa.. the WORST ear worm ever song. But it’s a tad challenging to hold one string down while playing another, then doing triple slurs, making sure the bow isn’t all over the place, hands relaxed, pick ups on an up bow. And then, there’s Mozart. I’m going home lol.
