VIRTUOSITY

Virtuosity is not a good or a bad thing.
It's a tool to be used when necessary.

Virtuosity can have the effect of making one transparent and predictable.
It immediately shows that you have been educated.

Modern education can be a form of enslavement
so it's a dangerous card to have at the foundation
all of the time.

Technique is the rational mind
important like seasoning.

Absence of technique, like a child, like an animal.
Empathy for the environment as a moment.
The ear in the heart.
Crucial.

Language is not a conquest
Neither is music.

Clarify your intentions for playing
and the techniques and empty spaces will arrive
of a greater unity than is commonly accepted
or expected.

Remove the walls of the zoo
and see how the instinct is reborn.
