Nobody Else Can Make The Sound You

One Of The Things I Love About Music Is Live Performance.

One Is That You Have To Take Time, Lots Of Time, To Let An Idea Grow From Within. The Second Is That When You Sign On To Something, There Will Be Issues Of Trust, Deep Trust, The Way The Members Of A String Quartet Have To Trust One Another.

Nobody Else Can Make The Sound You Make.

Practicing Is Not Only Playing Your Instrument, Either By Yourself Or Rehearsing With Others - It Also Includes Imagining Yourself Practicing. Your Brain Forms The Same Neural Connections And Muscle Memory Whether You Are Imagining The Task Or Actually Doing It.

You Must Have A Reason To Be In The Places To Which You Go, And You Must Do Only Things That You Really Care About.
