<Any of you play music for a *true* living? God, if only.....>

Well, yeah. I think what I wish is that I were GOOD enough to be a major symphony player. Whether or not I'd actually LIKE that job, I don't know.

I did work full-time for about 20 years as a choral conductor (in another lifetime, it now seems). Being in charge of a large-ish church music program, I found out what it is like to have all your nights and weekends committed, month after month, rain or shine, hell or high water. I did enjoy it, but it is not conducive to much of a personal life, except with others who work the same schedule. However, the grocery store is a lot less crowded at 11 p.m., after a late rehearsal.

Right now, I'm happy being a "good amateur".

Susan
