Hey gang--
I just finished a new lesson/article,
Playbook for Beginners and Beyond: Adding Musicianship. Here are a couple of excerpts to give you an idea:
Where do we begin with this? My first intention in writing this lesson is to express to you that no amount of theory or mechanical learning can make a musician. The injection of musicianship, or the style of a musician as he or she plays their instrument, is just as important as the other four areas. But the deal is that musicianship doesn't stand apart from them. Yet it is a separate skill. Huh?...
and
...timing and rhythm comes just as much from your heart and gut as they do your brain and hand coordination. Coordinate your breathing.
I hope you find the info helpful.
Have a great night/day!
Steve
