It certainly has a knack for trees and such, but it's a bit weak in the traditional pieces.
Mastery does not lay in the mastery of technique, but in penetrating the heart of the music. However, he who has not mastered the technique will not penetrate the heart of the music.

This applies to so many things in life. Very cool.

Barefoot I leave it.

If I were making an English version of that poem (I don't know Japanese or English well enough to actually translate), the last line would read:

"Just got entangled."

More active yet smoother; more fragile and happenstance.

Not going to the world festival; enough to practice, weekly lessons and a Shinobue.

Fiona, all of your wood chopping and water carrying will not be overshadowed. In one way or another, you will be there. Move positively and everybody will benefit, none-the-less you.
