I had a few minutes to watch the video. Despite the mistakes I was pleased in a way. I looked good which is always good!!
I was so so surprised to find the LeClair clearer and cleaner ?and with the same percentage of mistakes and recoveries than the Pocket concerto. Why is that
Does that speak to Alexander's principle of unrelaiability of sensory appreciation?
Or is it that I wasn't able to listen to the videos carefully? was the accompaniment a factor? the backing of chords the contrast in tone? Simplicity of LeClair and it's clarity, compared to my piece with it's ups and downs and dynamics...
Anyhow, it is interesting and puzzling. I can't really trust my reaction-judgement and reaction-feeling... one is always biased, and according to Alexander, one needs the help of an "objective method of monitoring".
This started years ago as a personal journal of my practice of music, movement, teaching and learning in general. After some years of inactivity, I decided to pick it up again. Here you will find thoughts, questions, curiosities, dilemmas, fears, hopes, and reflections. Sometimes in English, sometimes in Persian, on occasion resembling poetry, and also hopefully some music too. Note: This blog is a personal one, not associated with the organization I help run.
