A few months ago, my husband and I went to see Andre Bocceli. It was amazing! His singing was incredible, along with that of his colleagues with whom he shared the stage.
While leaving the concert my husband said, “why don’t we do this more often?” “Do what more often?” “Go to performances”.
It made me stop and think. Why don’t we “do this more often?”
When we were in college, we were surrounded by music. It was apart of our everyday life. We would roll out of bed in the morning and go to music theory, or piano class, followed by music history, then choir, then conducting, then maybe in the evening we would go to someone’s recital. Music was everywhere! I didn’t realize it until I wasn’t surrounded by it anymore, what I was missing.
Every time you watch somebody perform, you learn something, so why don’t we “do this more often” my fellow musicians? Not only do you learn something, but it reignites your passion for your art and what you do!
