Your life is a cadenza

Finesse: violinist Renaud Capuçon 

There is so much chorus in your life, so much orchestra -- there are so many people around you, each person an instrument, singing along. You enjoy this coming together, this orchestra, and yet you wish for a solo tune.

You wish for a cadenza.

You wish for your tune to stand out, you wish to reach out to people, reach out to the collective -- the people.

Have you ever been to a rock concert and heard the guitarist or drummer do a solo? A cadenza is kind of like that, except it’s part of the classical-music tradition. Cadenzas are for virtuosos: extremely talented, expert players of their instruments. [source]

Sudden embrace

Those old-time composers, without their smartphones, computers, cars wrote glorrrious music. They had dance and melody, and were we not so numbed by modern day repetitive sounds, we would find them fun and energetic.

They lovingly attacked you with emotion. Imagine meeting a man/woman who is very happy to see you and embraces you with joy immediately, or sometimes tells you a story of his/her heart straightaway, without the formality of modern day life.

Why shouldn't we speak from our soul?
