YOU GUYS
I got out my cello this morning and tried some of the viola stuff I've been having trouble with.
CELLO IS SO MUCH EASIER THAN VIOLA
By which I mean, I am so much better at cello than at viola.
By which I mean, eight years of lessons followed by a two-decade hiatus beats three months of lessons.
Which shouldn't come as a surprise, and yet.
The trouble, of course, is that I'm more interested in playing the viola. Largely on account of portability, but that's still a reason. So... I guess I push on through the fumblefingers and wandering bow and completely losing my place in the music and on the fingerboard.
I just hope it takes less than eight years. (I'm still shooting for two.)
In the meantime I can break out the cello to remind myself that it does get better. I hope.
