But I’m confident that the ‘click’ moment will actually arrive someday completely on it’s own – much like my first dream in Spanish in which I understood every word. Having learned a second language, I know that there’s a big jump betwen that and actually beginning to think and speak (or in this case play) in that language without translating first.That slows me down a lot. Sight reading still feels like translating a foreign language (notes) into my familiar language (finger numbers) before with the added step of then translating the numbers into movement. I still have lots of newbie “ah-ha” moments every week. I get a LOT out of the really basic Suzuki 1 stuff. Dabbling with the E-bass in college was really learning a few Ani DiFranco tabs to play with my roommate. So why am I still in Suzuki 1 after almost two years?ġ. I realize that on the surface it might seem like driving a Formula One car with a learner’s permit (and it sorta feels like that some days). And what a strange, crazy trip it’s been!Ī cello friend asked how it was possible for me to be working on both Bburg (aka The First Movement of Brandenburg Concerto #5) and Happy Farmer (Suzuki 1).
