Try "singing" the opening phrase of the Mozart Concerto on the instrument
(and away from the instrument) rather than "attacking" it.

Alas, the limits of musical exposure are rather narrow for me. Would
that I understood harmonics and harmony better.

Who needs to become sick with memory? I'm done with hiding under the
bed; enjoy it as it comes.

Independence? Bah. Mostly bonding - enjoying that I can understand
the way people I'm hanging with are thinking. I didn't say anything
against Beethoven. And, for the record, I didn't say anything against
Mozart either; I merely reported what a friend had said and expressed
an understanding of that, in the context of my frustration at having
obsessed over the attack of the first note of the concerto. (I have
not obsessed over the attack of the first note of the Brahms second
sonata. I know better now. [...didn't even need the clarion D!])

Never trust anybody;-) ...and watch out for the dolts.
