Unreachable [不可达到] : The Sound and The Colour [声音与颜色]

in cn •  8 years ago  (edited)

Today, I was wandering around with a friend on a music shops street, 汾阳路, fenyanglu. While he was looking for a guitar case, the one and only thought in my head was practicing my passion. Again. More than one month since the last session, it is getting very rare. I used to play several hours a day. In a bad experience with a kidney stone, the pain was so fierce that I couldn’t feel the top of my fingers anymore.

It may sound stupid, but at that time, I thought a lot about my piano.

The contrast between culture and art couldn’t be more intense. On the right side, a classic little Chinese street with people shouting at each other, selling groceries and cars riding on the boardwalk. On the left side, a violinist in a 7 square meters shop rehearsing a mild melody. Alone. Content.

And finally, I played. In the end, no satisfaction. Maybe a bit, but no conclusion to the feeling I was craving. Maybe because I wasn’t feeling alone enough. Recently, my zone is very hard to find.

Passions, love, bounds, experience

Always, forever, the most, important

Aren’t these everyone’s clues of existence ?

Why do they taste so grey at the moment ?

Music is a door, and musicians are the key, keep playing bro !

playing several hours is not easy..Are you a professional pianist? I am an amateur.I like classic music and playing piano.

Unfortunately, I am not. I am currently in exchange in China for my studies, and I used to play 1-2 hours a day. However, I played in bars a few times, it's a bit like the accomplishment of something I worked for so long! Don't give up !

@wilhelmski. Yes, I will continue to do it. Wish you success in your studies and enjoy the good time in China.
