The Joy of Rehearsing
Between lessons is when the awesomeness happens.
Imagine if you'd never been in a swimming pool. I could describe what it feels like to be completely surrounded by water, newly buoyant with slow motion legs, feeling the water pressing in on you in every direction. Sunshine, splashes, and the smell of sunscreen — use all your senses. I could say what it feels like, and you could repeat the things I say, but you won't truly feel it until you've actually been in the water yourself.
And so it is with the joy of rehearsal. Dive in. Get immersed in the pursuit of accuracy and artistry. Toss around the musical choices in front of you and see what floats. I can talk about it all day, but you have to jump in to know what I mean.
So, come on in. The water's fine!
