Dear all,

thank you so much for your posts - that's very encouraging! Yes, I'll definitely join an ensemble or try and found one. The combination of my dreams would be a mix of winds and strings: oboe, flute, violin/viola, cello and harp ... could play anything from baroque dances to celtic airs and the occasional world music experiment or so... but that's just phantasies yet.
Anyway, I'll work on that.

@ Howard: Having received a PhD in Southeast Asian Studies as well as traveled and researched a lot in Southeast Asia (though mostly on the mainland with occasional short sojourns in Singapore) I know how beatiful your area of the world is, but I can also imagine really well how difficult it must be to make a living as a (western) classical musician over there! I admire your commitment and dedication to still pursue this path against all odds.
Also I have to thank you for your great video recording of Bartok's 3 Folksongs from Csik ... it's one of my 6th grade exam pieces and listening to you playing it again and again has really been helpful to get me 'there'... it's a pity that I can no longer find the video on youtube...
