"In words, like weeds, I'll wrap me o'er,
Like coarsest clothes against the cold"

I have a new obsession with the piano. I feel that it's time to start all over again trying to gain mastery of it, though in my mind that's an impossible goal. Probably why I've never achieved it. But if it's never too late for anyone else, then it's never too late for me. I've been drilling myself through a number of Bach minuets which thankfully still sound catchy after the first 20 times. Only 200 more times to go until they're flawless, right?

Do you have a "goal" piece to learn? You've always been a source of piano appreciation for me :)

Of course, there's always too much to learn. Right now I'm learning Barcarolle by Offenbach and a few minuets by Bach.
