The concept is basically; that the pieces we know and love are made up of scales, arpeggios, and the like.
From Lara St. John
When you arrive at your destination, pay absolutely no attention to the thing people call jetlag.
However, the thought hit me that this was a pretty pathetic way to kick the bucket - being accidentally poisoned during a photo shoot, of all things - and I started weeping at the idiocy of it all.
For many years, the government of Canada has massively supported orchestras and the arts in general.
Ergo, because of the money problem, it is probable that our orchestras will soon go down in quality.
Mostly this problem is contained in the fact that the US makes it so difficult for Canadians to get green cards (you heard it here), but if an American orchestra really wants a player, they have their ways.
There are no benefactors in Canada because there is no incentive.
I thought that maybe it is not so much, as he seems to think, that the world loses interest in female performers after they hit a certain age, than the performers lose interest in the world.
Although I do not have a family, I have eyes, ears and imagination, and know, as most people know, that the importance of one's children is paramount.
I had been playing since I was 2 years old, never remembering a life without music, always playing everything naturally and mostly by ear, and all the grownups wanted were more scales and drudgery out of me.
