Thoughts on today's LIVE stream...Wonderful!
Hello, Dominic,
I am re-watching today's LIVE stream because I found it to be so interesting the first time. I am impressed with the HEALTHY approach you take to piano performance. Your wholistic approach is impressive, too! Many of the tips you highlighted support the power of the mind-body-spirit connection.
You humility, too, is notable. When you were speaking about getting out into nature and reminding oneself of the vast scheme of things, I thought how wise that is. Such is the importance of perspective.
Bravo!
Thank you!

"Water the plant" of the brain...Your story about making sure one's brain is activated, not just relying on "motor memory" was quite instructive and interesting! Such a charming story - makes one chuckle - about the brain saying, "I don't know. The muscles know...You didn't really include me as much as I should have been included in the memory process. I'm not really sure what you expect of me." ; D
To your point about the "luck factor"...it reminds me of the saying, "The harder you work, the luckier you get." :D

LOL -yes - Practice moderately in rehearsal so piano doesn't get out of tune!
