I play the cello. Pretty hard, pretty nice, and pretty pretty. Since I started before the orchestra, I am in the 5th grade orchestra, not the 4th. It’s very confusing but that is not the point of this blog post. I am playing this piece called, “Lotus Dance.” It’s very pretty, but it is IMPOSSIBLE. First, half of the piece is plucking the strings, which makes my fingers explode. Then, it’s really confusing because the violins in the orchestra play a totally different melody. Last, it’s really catchy. While I am writing this all I can hear is Lotus dance, which gets irritating after a while!
