Well, this seals it! I have been contemplating selling my flute for a couple months now but I can never bring myself to actually list it for sale. Honestly, I've pondered selling my flute several times over the years but again, just never really want to let it go. You see, I kind of love my flute - regardless of it's less than stellar reputation, or it's 'student' status (Gemeinhardt, M2, closed hole). I got it waaaayyyy back in 7th grade and I've always loved playing it, even some odd *mumbles* years later.
I was talking to a friend recently about how dumb it was to keep it since I haven't even had it out of the case since moving to this apartment - even on the low notes, a flute note just carries so well and in an apartment setting it's just really not practical to think I can get away with playing it without complaints from the neighbors. But then le friend pointed out that I could always take it with me when I go home and play it at the madre's house. I countered with "I play from memory, I don't even have sheet music anymore"....
And then here you are. With sheet music! :)
I feel this is a 'sign'. Or at least I'm going to say it is. :) I've already looked at the site and I'm thinking I'll start small, with some Christmas music, and go from there. It's been at least five years since I've even read any sheet music so probably best if I get a 'beginner' book as well just to make sure I remember what I'm reading. lol
I think I'll be taking my flute with me when I head home for Christmas this year. :D
