I absolutely love the violin, far more than I've ever appreciated any other instrument. I think it's mostly because I'm just beginning to realize the full potential of the instrument, its complexity, richness and range. It's like upgrading my automobile from an automatic transmission to a manual gearbox only to find a hidden row of buttons marked "Turbo Boost", "Oil Slick" and "Espresso Dispenser".
I'm looking at the pieces I'm practicing and the pieces I hope to play someday. Then I'm taking a look at the pieces the professionals play. I'm never ever going to master this instrument. I'm going to try, gods help me.
