Humility
BackI get a lesson in remaining humble during a performance of Nancy Hascall's solo handbell arrangement, "Joshua," the well-known spiritual. Yes, I have to stop not once, not twice, but *three* times before I can finally finish the $#@$!@ piece. My mom's playing the accompaniment on piano.

wow that was perfectly handled, and when you messed up, i kinda thought it was a part of the song, you no, to like include some humor in the piece

How impressive. And you handled the snafu with such professionalism. I initially thought it was part of the show. Maybe because "the best" often include humor in their performances.

You are so good! As a handbell soloist (though I haven't played this particular arrangement, I may order this one!) I feel your pain--but I also know how hard it is to pick up again once you've gotten off track--and with this piece, it would be a train wreck if you tried to keep going. Better to stop and get it right! I'd love to see more solo stuff from you.

LOL i totally understand -- that's a tricky one! i haven't been brave enough to tackle the bell solo part, but i've accompanied a pretty well-known bell soloist on this piece and he's had to stop at the EXACT same place hahahahaha it's so hard there!!
