You know, I've often wondered about that... will I be that cantaknerous when I'm 80? Why should I honestly expect that I WOULDN'T be? (If you play in amateur orchestras as much as I have, you've heard a lot of players who really aren't very good but who think they're quite fabulous. I've left standing orders with my wife to confiscate my clarinet if I reach the point where my playing does more harm to a group than good. I'll obviously never again match my peak when I was in music school and practicing 6 hours a day, but I still have some standards.)
