Imagine
for a moment that you could execute every scale,
chord, and pattern faster and cleaner than anyone
else in the world. It would be a remarkable
accomplishment. But I assure you that you would
sound profoundly boring and unmusical. Equally
and possibly more important than technique is
the ability to express emotion and personality.
To play soulfully and project musical ideas
in a deep and personal way is what separates
an artist from a craftsman. It is easy to lose
track of this essential element in your pursuit
of technical excellence. Ultimately, it is what
we desire and yearn to hear in music.
If
you have a music/jazz related topic you would
like Bob to address in this section or questions
you might like answered, you can email
Bob or contact
him.
