wow – essence! – (and I am even not half way through)
can call it improvising, music, reality, life or whatever – THATs it!! :))
oh, how wonderful – echt, ey!
(now through III. ;))
thank you (both) for thinking / experiencing / perceiving all that, and saying all that, and PLAYING that – man, I am deeply interested to bump into your music from now on (even if recordings got nothing to do with my old friend’s Lena Bloch, gigs with her, her playing of Lee’s pieces, her playing while experiencing your kind of musical attitude!)!
Afaik its pretty rare – to me in fact its the mastership of musicianship, of PLAYing, of BEing real and in reality! -, and its a very very very long way, once one started to “learn” to play an instrument to get THERE!
(its easy to say that from my point of view; as I can’t do anything else but ..PLAY, in the presence, in reality, the moment, the place, and in everything that I experienced before to get there NOW – as I don’t have, as I can’t do!, bother with all the things I learned – as I never did! So its pretty limited what I can say. But also it could be nothing but the truth – know what I mean? Anyway.. :))
Thank you for being like you are, you both life-/music-developers, players, singers, and dancers with your instrument, and even with your personal characters!
And: Alles Gute to you!
