Why I'm Writing This Blog

These writings were first for me, to meditate on these subjects.  But I also really hope that the observations and lines of thought will be useful to other people.   The general stuff might be of interest to anyone, but there will be specific stuff posted pertaining to violin practice and performance.  Playing the violin is an ongoing exploration I started in 1973 (yikes!) and there is always more to learn... 

I'm learning how to enjoy it more.  

Actually, I'm learning to enjoy everything more.
