Requiring more than measures of silence
posted in Uncategorized |
We all have, or should have, ways of showing creative and upper to niti and inspiration. I cannot draw so I do not draw. However I can do things that are musically interesting, at least to me. And I have been for a very long time. I think they took my first formal music classes 55 years ago. And I have been listening ever since. A lot of exposure to other people’s inspiration. If I was one bit better at what I do I also will be trying to record myself. Still not too late but for now I just listen. To everything I come across. You never know what’s going to take and send you in a new direction. This afternoon I listened to a good interview with someone who has been making music professionally for, about 55 years. I have listened to him. And what I took away from the interview is that you need to simply do things. You need to pick up your drumsticks and pound. You need to blow into your tuba until something that pleases you happens and if you are really on the ball you will record those moments. For your own future. Where am I going with this? No place. Just a recognition that music is everywhere and that there is no set way to do it. I almost said right. But there is no way to avoid that music requires that you do something for it to happen. Those little melodies in the back of your mind only become valuable to the world if someone else can hear them. I guess I need to pick up my own game
