Regarding Mozart

When I began to learn Sonata 5, by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, six months ago I had no idea that it would take this long to master. In the beginning, the notes where choppy, dissonant and disturbing. At the three-month marker the notes began to sing, slowly, in a flat sort of way. Finally, at the six-month marker, the piece has come together in sweet harmony! After working my poor fingers to the bone I can finally hear Mozart’s masterpiece emerging. Give me another month or so…!
