The notes I handle no better than many pianists. But the pauses between the notes ah, that is where the art resides.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't think I handle the notes much differently from other pianists. But the pauses between the notes - ah, there is where the artistry lies!!
I'm not really a pianist.
When I hear the piano played in a compositional way, like in a songwriter's way in a compositional way, there's a certain arc to that that I love.
I'm one of those pianists who tends to ignore every existing recording and lots of traditions about playing pieces when I start.
I'm able to sometimes express things even more articulately on the piano than I am with singing.
And I definitely have an affinity with the piano.
Well, no. I believe that it's not at all impossible that some of the performances that I've heard so far by some pianists may be superior to my own playing because those are two totally different acts altogether.
It's like a whole orchestra, the piano for me.
Piano playing is a dying art. I love the fact that I can be one guy with one instrument evoking an emotional and musical experience.
Oh yeah, we all write. That's what's great about when you have basics in piano.
