This video tells a story about audience critiques, virtuosity, and the perspective of a performing musician.

Every recital I do I make sure I have one really hard piece to fulfill my difficulty quota to avoid dealing people like the dude she’s talking about in the video

Also I think negative comments is better than having no comments at all cause that means your music managed to evoke a response from someone so powerful they thought to talk to you after the concert to tell you why they thought you sucked lol
