Climb till ya drop

Lots of sessions at the climbing gym, which will make me stronger or destroy me; thus far, I'm becoming a monster.
Slowly, gradually picking away at the speedy passages in our concert music; it amazes me when I go over them and find they have stuck in my brain and fingers. Would that I had the boiler plate runs under my control, but there's a price to be paid for decades of neglect.
Really liking the lyrical passages of the "Jupiter" movement.
