Re: [Harp-L] Howard Levy in Philadelphia 3/23/08

great comment - 
 
My experience w/Howard's lectures/workshops/whatevers - bring a recorder.  So 
much is offered in such a concentrated fashion. 
 
Howard lectures/performs/lives from his own advanced state of mind which is  
almost like a musician not of this earth. It is fascinating to experience, but 
 for us mortals, a tiny piece of him may be enough to work on for many  
months/years. Record the experience, go back and digest bits and pieces at your  
own speed. To avoid frustration, DO NOT feel that you will get it all at one  
lecture.

I hope  this isn't the case here, and I know this is just petty semantics,
but I've  always resented things being labeled a "workshop" when, in fact,
they are  just a demonstration / lecture. A workshop implies active learning
and  interaction, and I've lost track of the times I've been excited to work
on  something with the guidance of an expert in their "workshop," only to
find  myself only sitting and listening to a lecture / performance.   The
latter can be really cool...as long as I didn't have different  expectations.

....and I'll probably fall for the "workshop" monicker  again....
