Patience and endurance

this video took several takes (and still is far from perfect), as i was struggling with the B flat. it's okay though, i'm slowly learning that lesson that i just gotta keep practicing. i have every motivation to keep at this instrument, which is comforting. the thousand hour challenge really makes me desire discipline.

discipline just so happens to be a funny thing though. because sometimes it means that when i practice, i only play a few measures over and over and over and over. the hope is the payoff. for me that means not only hitting my notes with great tone, but hitting those little half and eighth notes with ease. it's tough stuff!
