Some Inspiration
For a while I couldn't watch orchestral videos, concerts, let alone handle hearing a horn in the next room. But now I am able to find inspiration again after many months of healing (physically and psychologically). It makes me want to practice, no matter how difficult or rough I sound. It reminds me of how happy and excited I use to be to go to orchestra rehearsal. I love that feeling of sharing a gift of expression as a whole group, listening to my friends, and feeling that positive energy after a great day of rehearsal! Thank God for the Berlin Philharmonic and their digital concert hall, they inspire me to never give up hope.
