Music Threads
At some point, I realized that for me, the big enjoyment I get out of music is in “solving the problem“… Transcribing a dense harmony, analyzing a tough piece, solving a difficult fingering or voicing.
I get much more enjoyment out of that than I do from polishing a piece for performance. Oddly enough, I was the same way as a programmer. The fun was in solving the problem, not in perfecting code.
