I'm in the process of making up that list. So now's the time to get your 2 cents although I think we're pretty much covered it all.
Chopin’s music is all I need to look into my soul.

Kathleen and Mel,
Thank you for your kind words on my play and advice to post in the "Just for those totally devoted to Chopin" thread.
I'll post information there about the names given to Chopin's Preludes.

growing older is very sad
we will miss the things we've had
we wake and it's another day
yesterday has slipped away
with every taken breath
we are closer to our death
i know that there will come a day
when i'll lack the competence to play.

Ah, but life's a dream
A moment's breath
A whispered sigh
There is no death
In darkness or light
As night follows day
So music lingers
Before it fades.

My greatest frustration is all the seconds, minutes and hours of my life that I am forced to spend on other things than music.  And, Matt, I would also like to add, popular adults !  Ragnhild

I have another one - that nobody bothers to really listen and understand when we talk about it (I could spend hours on that, actually it is not surprising :rolleyes: , except of course and luckily this outstanding forum.

Yeah...those eyes glaze over all the time when I talk music. Except at lessons!

Just had a lesson. My most frustrating thing still is how poorly I can sometimes (ahem ...often) play at a lesson.... I want to play well after all the practice during the week but it usually falls apart, if not right away then, half way through...grrrrrr

My biggest frustration is having an old injury flare up and hinder my progress. Health obviously comes first, so better to cut back on practice or choose less technical pieces until the problem clears. Not that it's a very bad injury at this point... But better safe than sorry .

Pianolina: So good to hear from you. I hope you are OK.
Best regards,
Kathleen
