Other books I've liked related to musicality and learning: Vic Wooten's The Music Lesson. Another where I don't think I read anything I didn't already know, but presented in such an amusingly different metaphysical way that I could feel the brain cells growing while reading (and re-reading it). Reinforcement's part of the process :-) Adam Rafferty's new book, (I forget the title) largely based on his studies with Mike Longo (Dizzy Gillespie's pianist). Again, probably nothing earthshaking that any of us who have been playing for too many decades haven't heard before, but nicely presented, organized, with Adam's thoughts on application and taking advantage of the concepts. A tour of the elements of "musicality", with very practical application tips (how to prepare for an open mic, for example).

Anyway, I watch a lot of Jimmy Buffett live and he doesn't ever seen to play a lot of his songs the same twice and I wonder if they rehearse them ten different ways or if the Coral Reefers are just so good that they can go wherever he does. Last edited by rllink; 10-27-2020 at 09:39 AM. |

A couple simple things that I try to work on are holding the notes and let them ring clean as long as you can. Making certain that if the listener is waiting for the hook- Don’t screw up what the listener is waiting for. Claude Debussy is attributed as saying “Music is the space between the notes” Bach wrote the Cello suites without dynamic notation, so the pauses, the crescendos etc. are up to the interpretation of the artist. Musicality will come when we are proficient enough playing a piece that we can feel the emotion of it. That emotion will translate.
