A thing worth doing is worth doing badly | LPR

http://www.lonelypeaksrecords.com/post/chesterton-thing-worth-doing

Is a thing worth doing, worth doing badly? Anyone who has studied a musical instrument, and especially those who pursue it professionally, knows that it takes years, even decades, of bad playing before. One does it well. This is true of almost all arts and abilities: we pass through a long formative and purgative learning stage where we do the thing less than well. Chesterton's point is exactly that: if you don't believe in doing a thing badly, at least at first, you could never hope to do it well. That ...

Ode to a Nightingale | LPR

http://www.lonelypeaksrecords.com/post/ode-to-a-nightingale-reading

A Reading of Keats' Ode to a Nightingale. Before you play the attached video, read the poem. Read it aloud, and then, play the video. The difference between what you have read aloud and what you hear in the video is the work of the artist. The mind boggles when you see the treasures that an artist can find and reveal for you. My heart aches, and a drowsy numbness pains. My sense, as though of hemlock I had drunk,. Or emptied some dull opiate to the drains. One minute past, and Lethe-wards had sunk:.
