Last night I was practicing and nothing went right. I did some warm ups and
started to work Strauss Nocturo. Stuff that has been easy a couple days ago
just didn't work. I kept missing simple intervals, the short run about ¼
into the piece fall apart. I quit.
I'm wonder if it was just a bad
Mr. Gross,
In my experience, days like that usually have one of two causes: a really hard
day of playing the day before (like during Ein Heldeleben rehearsals last
semester), or something not being right in my playing. If its the latter, the

Dear Bill,
