Dipsy, thank you to you and to Beric. That is very helpful. In a way, it lets me feel OK about just continuing to live with the piece, and wait for the music to tell me what it wants, rather than try to be too consciously Illusive.

If by "jamming" you mean following along with a group playing songs by ear, you can only play as much as you can hear. A beginner guitar player probably learns a couple variations on a I-IV-V7 chord progression over his first few evenings a

Cool...I waited for the "pumped up" sound with more muscle to arrive. There is a covered structure throughout the piece, the outline of melodies on both hands as Steve pointed out. Left hand sounds more prominent because it is an actual

Pianostudent - I don't know the answer (how to convey the mood/notion of the title of a piece) but asked a man who might, and the advice from beric (paraphrased) is: On 'Illusion: "The starting point is learning what to play - right notes, etc

How about if the teacher writes in Johnny's notebook... "I'm sorry that I was not prepared to teach Johnny effectively today. I will strive to reach him better next week, since he's a good guy who wants to soak up music."

I'll probably be shot down for what I write here: I don't bother much about sight reading because, I know the method of constructing major and minor scales,and thus key signatures. I do not bother much about time as I play for my own pleasure.

Thank you SwissMS, Andy Richard, I agree, I still have work to do on this piece. As you suggest, it really needs some more slow pratice. But at least I managed to join in for this recital. It is interesting that you mention a Horowitz recording,

Not to wander too far into the ELECTRONIC domain, but isn't the HOPE that (one day, some day) these preferences will be "switch selectable" ? A dream perhaps, but being able to select a piano that responds like brand & model x,y or z a

I know this thread is little old… anyway, I find it quite interesting. Is it worth it? If we consider it as a hobby like most people here do… Then it is exactly like some pre-poster wrote: it is worth if it doesn’t affect other things in you

This is very interesting. But, not to diminish the contrast, the character of a jazz and a classical audience are not really that far apart. They are both audiences of experienced, educated listeners who are really there to pay attention. These ar

I did a project in C, where if you input a string of letters, and modifiers, you can produce a melody of sine tones. For example: +EDAaFfEe-Bb+C-BAGAaEe Made the melody from Prok 3. I think we were able to write polyphony as well. *note that the e

It seems your experience was a success in that the people there seemed to like it--but I doubt that I would like this in a more normal classical concert setting. The silences between movements can be very rewarding, as the music sometimes continues
