The Four Core Performance Skills part 5 - Improvising 36:19

3M ago36:19

36:19

The final core performance skill to explore is the ability to improvise. This is a skill that is very natural to some musicians (and even non-musicians) and very mysterious and perhaps even scary to others. And yet, it's the oldest of all the skills, the earliest way to create music. It's also essential for every genre other than classical (and the…

Practice Success: The Power of the Subconscious Mind 25:13

4M ago25:13

25:13

Simply put: you can't play music well unless you're subconscious mind is driving the bus. If you're aware of having to think about each note, each rhythm, each aspect of the music before you play it, then you're still practicing with your conscious mind. When you train your technique and repertoire beyond the point of awareness where your hands jus…

Never Forget Your Main Thing as a Musician | Ep79 32:13

5M ago32:13

32:13

As David Lane shares, an attempt to create a true master calendar, accounting for all 168 hours in a week, is a sobering lesson. Chances are that you, like he, have too many interests, too many obligations, and/or too many goals.

It's human nature to want to learn all the music, listen to every album, read every book, watch every movie, and visit every city.

Composing and Improvising are essential tools for every well-rounded musician, but they are different skills. Quite often, when someone decides to become a composer, they are making up something from their instrument and then writing it down on staff paper.

If you've had a music teacher at any point in your life, you've probably heard the advice to "slow down". It is truly excellent advice...if you approach it a certain way.
