ewtNew job is lovely in many ways. Fairly good atmosphere, work is enough and hard enough to keep me occupied but I am still 'new' and I do not have to make decisions. The walk/scoot/whatever there and back is a bit tiring but hey, more exercise for ewt is usually a good thing. Being in a fairly regular routine in the mornings is also good.
The major disadvantage is that if I do that job AND teach, I'm left with very little time (even if I stopped going to work at Yakar I would still be quite pressed for time). This means I am not practising as much as I should, and I am falling behind on other things (getting the house tidy, doing laundry, you get the idea). The practising bothers me most; by the time I get home and practise I am very tired and don't really get quality practise in. This is not good.
I need to finish cleaning up so my practise mute is not sitting in the bottom of a box somewhere. I need to use that thing, an hour every morning.
I will see how the busking goes; I hope that the scheme continues. If it does, and if I do well at it, then when my four-month contract with Multi-Sharp is up then I may just try to teach and busk, instead. The busking is good because it kills two birds with one stone (what a horrible expression! I do not go around throwing stones at birds!) - I get to play music and I get paid for it. If I can regularly make enough money at it for it to be possible to do that, then that is what I will do. The more music I do the better, and the less stuff I don't love doing I do the better.
So, if the busking doesn't work out, or if the busking scheme is a complete flop and they shut it down, what else can I do that involves making money from playing the French horn?
