I Don't Like To Sing Loud.

I Am So Envious Of My Colleagues From 100 Years Ago Who Only Sang New Works, They Hardly Ever Sang Revivals.

Everybody's A Work In Progress. I'm A Work In Progress. I Mean, I've Never Arrived. I'm Still Learning All The Time.

The Student's Job Is To Stay Open-minded, To Quell The Knee-jerk Defensiveness We All Possess In The Face Of Suggestions For Improvement, And To Maintain Patience When Faced With A Process That Is Often Slow, Confusing, And Frustrating.

I Have A Noble History Of Being Rejected By A Lot Of Places, Only To Discover That The One That Finally Lets Me In Is In Fact The Perfect Fit.

I'm Not A Reactionary.
