I went to the Movies

Daily writing prompt
What was the last live performance you saw?

A few weeks ago, I saw Chevalier. It was an amazing story with amazing acting and writing. Not to mention the music was breath-taking and the costumes were perfect. It is an untold story of a violinist during the French Revolution times. His name is Joseph Bologne. It is a must see.

I love violin music. It was my passion when I was in elementary school. I played the violin until I was in high school. The biggest regret I have it not playing it anymore.

This movie revitalized my need for music, but more than listening to music. I want to play an instrument again. Music really is an international language. You can always find something that says exactly what you are feeling or thinking.

I wanted to be a music teacher when I was in 4th grade. But then music and playing in the orchestra became a competition and a popularity contest. I don’t do well with contests. I hate games, and don’t like to even watch games. The reason is because of how hateful people can be. I am all or people wanting a good game to watch, but I loose interest when they are mean and disrespectful.

I would like to play the Kalimba Thumb Piano. I am thinking about buying one. It seems like it would be relaxing. If you have played this let me know what you recommend and tell me about your experience.
