On loop

Recently during my prep, I open up my iTunes and chill and do work. This is pretty normal, but within the past two weeks I realized I've been listening to Chopin pretty much perpetually.

My body is having such a strange reaction listening to the Chopin Sonata No. 3, 4th mvmt. I just touched on the tip of the iceberg yesterday as to how I feel about it, but it's so strong. Words I can pull up are surging, intense, forceful, pushing, urgent, glorious, triumphant, sparkling...I could go on. I actually have to really force myself to BREATHE while listening, but I get this tightening in my chest, and it's such an intense, passionate squeeze, I don't feel like I have other choices than to listen on repeat. Not that that's a bad thing.

The bad part is I haven't learned it yet and I fully expect more of me hollering "FML!" at my piano every time I try. Fun!
