But the difference between the little pieces and the big pieces - i'm not actually sure which are the little pieces. with some of the big pieces, it's a lot of musical running around, whereas the little pieces, you can say everything you want to say.
Running Differences Musical
We're dealing with music that is being played by traditional instruments in a specifically built building called a concert hall. but classical is not - the reference is wrong, because classical on one hand refers to one period in musical history, which is mozart, hayden, beethoven, which is a fine period in musical history, but it was a while ago.on the other hand, it sort of alludes to some kind of "class," which a, is not true; b, is kind of detrimental to the whole idea. because the point is that this music is available and it's actually relatively reasonably priced.

Though methods play an important role in the early stage, the techniques should not be too mechanical, complex or restrictive. if we cling blindly to them, we shall eventually become bound by their limitations. remember, you are expressing the techniques and not doing the techniques. if somebody attacks you, your response is not technique no.1, stance no. 2, section 4, paragraph 5. instead you simply move in like sound and echo, without any deliberation. it is as though when i call you, you answer me, or when i throw you something, you catch it. it's as simple as that - no fuss, no mess.
Moving Play Echoes
I find the fact that so few people buy albums to be strangely emancipating. there's absolutely no reason for 99% of musicians making albums to think about actually selling albums. so as a musician you can just make an album for the love of making albums.
