Piccolo - the Bane of my Existence


Okay.....so that piccolo stuff I'm doing this weekend is going to be the death of me. I'm practicing like mad but I'm so worried I won't be ready. When I was in my early 20's I ROCKED at piccolo - but it has been over a dozen years since I played it (unless you count Stars & Stripes Forever in the city band this summer!). Today I worked with the Korg on intonation and really fine tuned some of the spots in the Stravinsky. Tomorrow I'll work on it for an hour or two, but Friday is the dress rehearsal and Saturday is the main event. I'm about ready to chuck the Gemeinhardt out the window - but of course, I won't!
