I've been to orchestra performances where they play something totally
god-awful and I can barely tolerate the tedium as an audience member.
If I were a professional player I don't think I could have the
stamina to sit through rehearsals if I can't even keep myself
interested in the music. But I'm not, so I'm off the hook. How do you
stand it?
