Reminds me of learning to play a piece of music you love. By the time you master it, it seems all the magic has disappeared.

I tried to teach myself piano. I actually enjoyed it when I was learning it, however I was really enjoying the progress I was making and less about the music I was playing. I wonder though if you get really good with music, you can probably learn and play new pieces much more quickly so maybe the magic won’t fade as quickly.

I think you appreciate the piece in a different way, it’s less magic and more knowledge.

Is that the same effect like playing a piece you love over and over and suddenly you can’t hear it anymore?

I think it’s even stronger, because sometimes you’ll repeat the same 10 seconds a thousand time to master it until you feel like jumping out of the window.
