Over my time in music I have fallen in love with many different pieces of music such as Shostakovich's Jazz Suite, Jacques Offenbach's Orpheus In The Underworld and many others however there's one piece of music I love and adore, St Paul's Suite. When I first played this song I was maybe a freshmen or sophomore in high school and I found the piece to be hard and stressful but every time I listened to it I enjoyed it more and more. I eventually pushed myself to the point where not only could I play it on my violin, I could also play it on my guitar and my friends viola just because I had heard it so many times and practiced more hours than I could count. Maybe it's just the beauty of the music but this piece of music always gives me hope and glee because it reminds me of my own prowess to become successful.
