Re: Why so many 40-something starters?

I'm not in my 40s yet but have the same urge to play again. Start anew. For me it's a way to reconnect with who I was growing up and bring people together.

For context, I started playing/learning at 7 yo and did so consistently until I was 16. Playing in a youth orchestra as well as a regular one. Life took me in other directions afterwards and now I'm 30, in a different country, with a life that I've never imagined back when I stopped playing the clarinet.

It does feel like I've done what I had to do to secure me a good and joyful life and now I can focus on making beautiful music again, playing for and with friends.
