Blogging consistency

I’ve been crazy busy for the past two months and I’ve let my blogging fall behind. Between two community bands with concerts coming up now, a chamber music group and a quartet plus lessons, two hours of practice each day and the rest of life it’s been chaotic to say the least. Fortunately things are calming down and I’ll get back to posting at least weekly.

About

I’ve had two birthdays since I started this blog so now I’m 59 years old. I’m studying the horn again after a 37 year lapse. I played in high school and college. Now I’m retired and have the time to take it up again, something I’ve wanted to do since I stopped playing. I gave it up for marriage (I met my husband who played the cello in music camp), four kids, and a career in marketing. When my kids were young I had an opportunity to play in a community orchestra and my husband’s reaction was, “Are you nuts?” (He was right.) So much for playing the horn.

I’ve learned a lot since I started playing again. For the first year or so I worked with two teachers (you’ll have to read my blog to find out why). I play in two community bands and a community orchestra; I’m working on some great music, and I love every minute of it. Well, except for the really frustrating days which are also well documented in the blog. I was not a music major in college so I am now back in school working on a music degree.

Everything I’ve gone through horn wise is in my blog so I hope you enjoy reading it.
