Without much preface, and with mando-content in mind, what do you hope to accomplish, mando-wise, these holidays? Perhaps one's wishes may become another's inspiration.
To take the plunge first: Still by momentum from Carlo A's workshop, I hope to get together with at least two mando-colleagues, one at a time. Reality (yes, The Nasty Thing) happens to be that one is self-employed (and therefore self-enslaved), and the other a contractor to arguably New York's most popular holiday show. *sigh* Yet hope springs eternal...
I plan to finish a little mando-something I promised a German publisher last fall; I also hope to get back to my research-made-sounding-music project of last year, the Sinfonie-Overture of Mántzaros. Not to mention that, gosh, I'd like to actually start something new, as opposed to always running behind some long-belated, perpetually incomplete project.
And, oh... I also plan to reduce the (still enormous) ignorance-quotient in my playing.
