We are sounding good. I had trouble counting and missed a little soli entrance - repeatedly. This happens enough to me that I know I need to get better counting. I do fine counting x measures of rests, but when I'm playing and then need to keep track of a few measures ... I often mess it up. I think it is because I get flustered by the playing and lose track.
I think if I hear the music more ... musically, I will do better at knowing where I am. It is all such a one big puzzle, with all of the pieces related in such curious and tangential ways. I'll get my entrances better if I relate to the music more musically. It makes perfect sense yet is not the simple mechanical answer you might think it is.
Anyway, love playing this stuff, just love it. And actually, I really like how good I am starting to sound, counting mistakes or not. My ear is so much better.
