To Practice Music in a Pandemic

12/3/2020

If you have been bored or discouraged during this pandemic, you are not alone. All of us here at Pilsen Music Studio have been experiencing something very similar. Its at times like this where I find myself scrolling through Netflix and just reading about each show. It’s strangely comforting. However, I feel like I am blessed. I am on a musical journey and this provides a great deal of balance in my life, despite the presence of this horrendous Covid.

Whether you want to learn how to sing, how to play piano, how to solo on the saxophone, or how to do them all at the same time, music provides a welcome distraction from our world of 24 hour press coverage, elections that seemingly last forever, and constant new social media posts. 

Sometimes it’s just so nice to only have to focus on one thing. Its so nice to take some time out for yourself as you pursue your musical interests. As you practice your instrument, your piano playing, voice, or whatever other instrument you are playing becomes a metaphor for a brighter future.

​Don’t you owe this time to yourself? To play music is to thrive. We are in a society where constant coping is normalized, expected. Isn’t it time to thrive? Shant we thrive until the new year brings reopening and liberation? Take some time for yourself, pick that instrument back up and let us cheers for a more musical future. - Sam Barsi
