I was having a good day until I realised today marks an entire decade since I played my conservatoire final recital... 😮

[Jash Dholani @oldbooksguy]

3/ Nietzsche describes 3 modern vices

a) Overwork. To be constantly busy is self-negation. It betrays "a will to forget" oneself

b) Curiosity. Vague curiosity about everything, without deep obsessions, goes nowhere

c) Sympathy. Sympathy for all = a refusal to rank good & bad

“If a talent comes naturally to someone, they assume it’s nothing special, and instead try to improve at what seems difficult to them. As a result, people often specialize in things they're bad at.” — @G_S_Bhogal

[Henry Webster @henry_webster]

Whatever you’re doing - recording, performing, teaching - every moment with your instrument is a gift; an opportunity to learn, befriend, discover.

Strive to approach all these moments with gratitude and curiosity, no matter the circumstance.

This church took 632 years to build — what inspired it?

Heinrich Heine explained: "Men in those days had convictions; we moderns have opinions. And it needs more than opinions to build a Gothic cathedral."

And it was built to keep something extraordinary inside... (thread) 🧵
