The Passion



<I know at all times whether I am in the pocket or
<stretching the pitch in some way for tension or some
<other effect.  
=====
<the best players often begin their solos with 
<intent but transition into inspiration and then 
<back into intent.
=======
<I call this "channeling to rage and finding
<resolution"
========
<the "intent" needs to come from the emotional,
<rather than intellectual side of the brain.  This
<means training yourself well 
<enough to be able to "intend something" thinking
<about the "what" and not the "how".
========
<In Inspiration, "Thinking" and "Feeling" are not so
<much an either/or, but rather a mixture. Your
<artistic sensibilities determine how much of each to
<add to your musical gumbo.
