This seems to be a situation where, for once, something is done for
its inherent good, rather than for secondary considerations.

Good for you, Ron!

I've never given a piano recital, just a few cello recitals. I think
it does help me to be a better technician, especially for concert work.
I hope that some day, as I get older, work will relent a little, and
turn to part-time, freeing more resources for growth, performance,
artistic endeavors (maybe some print-making), etc. "Retirement" does
have a pleasant ring to it, even though I know it'll be part-time.
It implies that chronic over-work doesn't need to be a life-sentence.
