So why is today so quick and painless? Because I don't remember much of the piece. Unfortunately that isn't reflective of the piece (ok 90% of that isn't), but rather because I had my nose in a book for school while listening; needless to say I didn't focus like I could have. This is actually something that has been bothering me for the last couple of weeks, the fact that as life speeds up, my chances to sit down and really explore a piece of music are dwindling. I'm certain this is more of a "growing up" experiences than anything else, it just means that when I do get a chance to really listen, I should take it, and let you all know.
