alil' bit of idea
after watching some episodes of Nodame Cantabile, i got something new again.
Previously i watch it, i gain more passion for piano...
Now i watch it. i gain a little something more...
this something is called the gd ears.
i need to have these gd ears in order to enjoy my music.
i need to expect more of the music my ears are going to listen...
there will soon be no more "acceptable", "so-so", "ok lah"
there will be only nice, beautiful, pleasant music...
i'm the one who chooses the music that i want to listen, and i shall filter out wad is unessential to my ears...
although my band is very young, i hav 2 tolerate it and forgive, but that doesnt giv it an excuse to filter out bad music too...correct?? yea...
besides having gd ears...
i oso think the feel is very important.
of cuz 1st and foremost you have to know your notes b4 any other steps is taken..
after knowing the notes the 2nd thing is the feel...
composers may forget to write down dynamics oso...
they play as they feel and feel as they play...
you don feel the piece is trying to convey, you're jus playing piano...
jus like singing...
you know the words,
but if you dunu the feel that you wanna express...
or you never express the feel,
you're jus merely singing...
which waste your melodious voice...
so if i neglect the feel of the piece,
i'm wasting the melodious, full, fat tone that my piano can produce...
i admit that was really a good piano
but i still think i'm wasting it...
many ppl ask me not 2 b sad, don emo...bla bla bla...
u all don understand...
if i wanna go overseas study,
this is e min. i shld expect myself 2 think abt it...
i don wanna go there aiya jus tke a degree thn 4get it...
i want ppl there 2 remember me, this small girl who travelled all e way from singapore to learn there and she's great...
jus by knowing how 2 play those instruments is nth....
by play them wid understanding is a different thing...
b'cuz besides these, i dunu anything at all, i've no skill..
tts y i always say 'being a professional is wad i want, wad i've always dream of, and i want it 2 come true'
