A story in your mind while you play.

[faa2010]

Can your train of though be imagine a story which the piece you are playing at that moment may referred to?

If so, can you share some examples?

Yes, faa2010, I can say it is possible. I do that quite frequently. The program I'm in requires me to memorize and learn to know by heart many different pieces of music. I often find my self moving through a synesthetic landscape of sorts. Often based off of vibrant images conjured in my head, faces, events, moods, and feelings. I often feel like I'm painting. Each thing in the picture evolves as I move through the music. There are stories and surreal energies I experience through my imagination which allow me to play very detailed parts. As well, I often experience music in technicolor. E for me is a vibrant fluorescent green. I compose as well. Feelings exibit themselves in various stages of my playing. I'd like to hear your experience. Do you have any other questions ? I may be able to give you more specific answers....
