I've discovered I'm still an orch dork.
When we go "wogging" in the mornings, I don't wear any headphones to pipe music into my ears. I need to be super vigilant of the people and animals and terrain around me. But I do have music playing in my head.
First, it's the allegro from Vivaldi's concerto for two cellos. Then as the route seems to continue forever and I need to change my breathing, it's the waltz from Tchaikovsky's Serenade for Strings. And finally, as I'm wearing out and pushing hard to finish, it's Brubeck's Take Five. I laughed when I realized that drawing on my knowledge of the history of music gives me the strength and tempo I need to get my feet moving!
