blah.

i'll never be good enough.





i have learned a beautiful piece on the piano. it's called Romance Sans Paroles Opus 17, No.2 by Gabriel Faure.

i have been playing it slowly and gracefully, putting as much soul and emotion as i could into it. but then i noticed that at the top "allegro molto." (oh yeah, you're supposed to read the directions first, right?) so, not know exactly how fast that indicates, i looked it up online and listened to a professional play it.





it is fast.





very fast.





i think the only kind of pieces i can play effectively are the painfully beautiful minor, slow pieces. i just can't get the whole painfully beautiful minor, fast as heck pieces.



phooey.
