| Jimi,
Simply stated, "ask yourself if you have ten years of musical experience or have you had the same musical experience for ten years?" (quoting some cranky old trumpeter). Can one find fresh ideas in endless repetition of the same piece? Yes, I suppose we can. . . but at what cost? I believe that our greatest growth comes in unexpected ways and expanding our musical turf is the best way forward.
Sorry to disagree. I'm not commenting on particular repertoire, I'm commenting on mindfulness and new horizons.
Best,
