If a composer could say what he had to say in words he would not bother trying to say it in music.
Gustav Mahler
Music is wonderful. I have always admired people who say "music is my life." I've wanted to say that very much myself. I played the piano for several years but stopped when i was in elementary school. However, now i also play the flute and classical guitar. I've wanted to say that. I've also always loved singing, listening to music, dancing. My life was all about music, as i think of it. I am having these thoughts because we had orchestra today. We were playing the marriage of figaro. We saw a short video of a famous conductor. The conductor seemed so zealous. He was smiling all the way. He was truely enjoying music. Feeling the music. Living with the music. I was awed. Also, the quote above is about composers. I've attempted to compose some musics myself, however, perhaps i need more practice, i couldnt compose a long one, instead, just a short, simple one. It was good enough for starters, in my opinion, i named it "Autum." It was fun. Perhaps, i could turn my life into music. My life is music. It is about music, but just a part of it. I am going to develop more hobbies that can represent me, and my life.
