A Billion Dollars And A Bag Of Potato Chips

Featured Replies

Normally, I wouldn't bother posting since I've basically sworn off this forum.

BUT....

I just had a fantastic evening. I had a choral piece that I once posted here premiered tonight. After the last chord had rung out, I heard someone nearby me utter the word: "Wow...." in an utterly hushed tone.

It was amazing. I feel like a billion dollars and a bag of potato chips.

Just so this thread doesn't seem so egotistical... because it is.... I invite anyone else to recount their "victory stories" here.

It's tiny little things like this that can make all the difference, isn't it? I can really understand how you feel about it. Congratulations!

Yeah, it's always such a rush to be a part of the audience when one of your compositions are performed.

I had a piece played on national radio several weeks ago, and it was a great boost to hear their comments on it.

Congrats! How validating.

I've had a few of those moments - none as obviously personally touching to someone as yours - but they're more motivating than anything, I think....
