A really very long time in the past on the classical guitar, I found that I may belief my arms to play the best notes with absolute belief and the expectation that I couldn’t miss and didn’t. At that very fortuitous second I leapt throughout the neck of the guitar and hit the best observe with easy fearless precision, and I by no means went again to taking part in the guitar with out religion in my easy accuracy.
I NEVER PLAYED THE GUITAR AGAIN WITH FEAR OF MISSING THE NOTE OR NOTES I WANTED TO PLAY.
I by no means considered what it was I used to be doing once I practiced the guitar after that revelation. I merely accepted I had found what the musical youngster prodigy did, however in my twenties.
So, what was it I did after I acquired religion in my taking part in? Did my follow change? Did I proceed to play after I lastly may play with out striving for what’s an not possible aim for many musicians?
What do I imply?
ALL CLASSICAL MUSICIANS WHO WANT TO BE GREAT CONCERT ARTISTS, WHO DO NOT EXIST IN THE EFFORTLESS PRECISION OF THE CHILD PRODIGY, ARE STRIVING NONSTOP FOR FLAWLESS PRECISION EVERY TIME THEY SING OR PLAY THEIR INSTRUMENT.
This nonstop striving is accepted as the one option to follow. It’s handed on by most music lecturers, ESPECIALLY in conservatories.
Returning to what I used to be doing once I practiced after my revelation, what was it I used to be doing once I practiced after that time?
I WASN’T STRIVING ANYMORE!
What do I imply?
The first objective of follow for almost all of classical musicians is to enhance. It’s so baked into the performer that it’s normally under consciousness, and it’s accepted because the norm, inherent, a part of who the performer is.
So, hastily, I DID NOT HAVE TO STRIVE ANYMORE BECAUSE I WAS EFFORTLESSLY EXTRAORDINARILY ACCURATE.
What was it I did from that second on once I practiced?
ALL OF MY ATTENTION WAS ON GETTING THE MUSIC INTO MY HANDS AND INTERPRETATION.
What does this imply?
IT MEANS I HAD CEASED TO BE IN A STATE OF NONSTOP STRIVING, OF BEING ALWAYS UNHAPPY WITH MY PLAYING, OF BEING UNHAPPY WITH ME!
This was TOO profound, and it meant I wasn’t going to proceed to follow with my new discovered fearless freedom on the guitar and restart my live performance profession.
Why?
Who I had turn into by the point I used to be in my twenties was a nonstop perfectionist, somebody who was by no means glad with something I did, who was PROUD of my requirements that have been unattainable.
IF I WAS TO RETURN TO PRACTICING AND PERFORMING ON THE GUITAR IN A STATE OF JOY AND ACCEPTANCE OF MY EFFORTLESS ACCURACY, THEN EXACTLY HOW WAS I GOING TO KEEP THIS FROM THREATENING MY EGO?
I COULDN’T!
I actually must be terribly clear right here.
There isn’t a overlap while you go from taking part in an instrument with absolute easy religion in your means to hit each observe, and the standard working towards of TRYING NOT to ever miss a observe.
The kid prodigy grows up and creates a persona that may dwell with absolute religion in his or her arms or voice as a live performance artist, by compartmentalizing. This implies all the remainder of the prodigy’s life could be a mess, even when the performer is basically enlightened on the instrument.
I turned a prodigy in my twenties, which is basically late. It meant my ego was not going to have something to do with my conceited, perfectionist, dissatisfied persona being threatened, so I didn’t proceed to follow or carry out after my revelation.
In closing, if I had chosen to face as much as my ego and saved working towards with supreme satisfaction, I presumably could be an enlightened being now.
IT’S NEVER TOO LATE. 🙂
