How about... YES! ... to PLAY again :) Friday is as good as any other day to do it: Let's DO IT :) PLAY!
Brake day for me, or maybe... in the evening if everything will go smoothly, but YOU don't forget to bring a bit JOY to yourself and possibly others (if not now, this could be another step forward to do it in the future) PLAY! HAVE FUN!
Let's let the music take us to... I guess it is different for everybody... Let's PLAY!
Let's continue our quest again today: HAVE FUN! PLAY!
How about bringing some music today to our living rooms, sheds, conservatories... wherever our piano stands :) PLAY!
I haven't played in two days (my car needed to be towed and repaired).Quote:

Not quite an out of body experience, but pleasant like that..
It’s quite an unnatural activity for a human to make sounds with small complex movements and finger sequences (when they all have to be played quite precisely with the feedbacks). How is it done exactly?
Glenn Gould was asked about fingering and what he practiced in order to remember specific fingerings in the large works. He said he hadn't thought about fingering in decades and he feared that it would be as dangerous as asking a centipede how it walks — and then it wouldn't be able to walk. People would ask him how he did what he did and he would say "I don't know” and "I don't want to know”. His friend said later that he was afraid he might lose facility if he worried too much about it. But he did worry.
Yes, it is magical... this brain of ours. Actually this is what I study in my free time, the mysteries of our brain and body... connections between those two and how those two learn. Anyway, glad you had some great experience... mystical? Well, that is what any activity does to us, in this particular situation PIANO and MUSIC. Why hesitate to play? Right?Quote:

Well... Play! ... and have FUN :)
How about bring some JOY for our own sake. PLAY!
Conservatory is the worst place to have your piano in. It is raining and it is SO LOUD that it is hard to hear your own thoughts. SO, I must wait with my time of JOY till it stops raining. But YOU! Well, you may have more comfortable environment for your piano. PLAY! Take advantage of that. Why wait? HAVE LOADS OF FUN!
Got some free time? Why not to PLAY a bit :) Let's have some FUN this Sunday :)
What will be the challenge for this week? Well, to keep going and as usually HAVE SOME FUN while trying to master those thrills in Minuet in G minor. Ufff... :)
Slowly forward... but with JOY:) PLAY!
Nothing new :) Same thing, same story: PLAY! HAVE FUN! New lies in what you do next... different for all of us. Again: PLAY!
Few more bits to do and PIANO TIME :) That's me. How about you? Ready to PLAY? Ready to have some FUN? PLAY!
