When BBCO first started, no one really believed that our orchestra could make it. We all have been pulling people into the orchestra ( literally ). I've seen joining and leaving in the orchestra. At times, I was tempted to do exactly the same, but I chose not to.
The people in my section are getting lesser and lesser, my level of confidence also got lesser and lesser. Without the encouragement of my section members, I can't perform up to my standard. A few times, i was the solo cellist in the orchestra. Without my members, I really can't do well. :(
Our first official concert, there were finally more people in my section but it had been too late. My level of confidence has already dropped to the extent that I do not believe that I can do well. So to tell you the truth, I did not perform up to my standard.
Seeing the number of people in the orchestra increasing and decreasing, I couldn't help to think. Do they love this orchestra or is it just 三分钟热度?
Before I end of this post, I'll ask you a question to let you wonder. Do you have a passion for CO? Will you let BBCO to have the honor have your passion for CO and one day, make you love BBCO? ッ
