I was a little surprised, amused,and very slightly alarmed to see something from my Twitter feed<\/a> reprinted in the current BBC Music Magazine (September issue- buy your copy today). \u00a0I do always try to remember that, unlikely as it seems, people do read these things. Thanks to \u00a0BBC Music Mag for frittering away a bit of your day reading my silliness. Much appreciated.<\/p>\n

Funnily enough, when I typed that, I’d been practicing about 4 hours without a break, and was sweat-soaked, sore and with very raw fingers. I had every right at that moment to feel like a proper practice martyr. \u00a0Seeing it re-posted, I feel like a student back at IU being overheard griping about practicing by one of my teachers. \u00a0I feel like I’ve just been busted for slacking. \u00a0I can just hear some voice of authority saying “Zee Kennets, zees ist vhy you vill neffer be a really great cellist!”<\/p>\n

Anyway, to my colleagues at BBC Music, I now answer: Yes, I know<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0all too well there isn’t…. But there must be<\/strong><\/em>…..<\/p>\n
