I really practiced hard and got to a certain level of technical proficiency. I overcame some of my limitations. I was a hard-working, dedicated bassoonist, but I have to say I'm not a natural musician.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I am a musician, but I'm another type of musician.
I practice on the acoustic guitar a little bit, but I think I have reached the peak of my talent.
I've always thought about myself as somewhat of a folk musician. I just write words. I don't think I'm even a musician. I don't play a lot of instruments, not really a soloist or anything.
What you learn from working with other performers and musicians is invaluable, really, and can only help you grow. I mean, if you spend your whole life focusing on yourself, you're not really learning much.
I loved music - listening and playing - but of course I could not imagine I would be a professional musician. It really happened step by step.
I would say I am an amateur guitarist.
I'm not technically proficient enough to attempt all kinds of music.
I've made a life and career as a professional musician.
I trained as a classical guitarist but that was it.
I know I'm a strong performer. I'm not an evolved musician.
