UPDATE - follow up topic for "You, your instrument and musical expression"
on: July 25, 2011, 12:58:34 PM
Hey all,
thank you all for taking the poll. Up until now almost 100 people have answered my question. results can be consulted via the poll-website (see link on the right of the page).

As you will see, some comments mention that "being at one" with the instrument is important.
This is a way of conceiving the musician-instrument relationship that interests me a lot.

Maybe this could be a follow up topic of the poll (but please, if you haven't done it yet, take the poll and share your comments on it: https://sites.google.com/site/murmivragenlijst/).

What does the the expression "being at one with the instrument" mean? How do we know/feel/... it when it is the case? Can we see it when watching/listening to other musicians? Is it something musicians should pursue? …
These questions are only possibilities, incentives to reply and share your insights on the matter. When replying to this message, please don't limit yourself to them but share your thoughts freely. Maybe it is interesting to keep on mentioning if your professional or not and which instrument you play.

Hope to read about your insights … don't hesitate, your thoughts on this topic matter!

Greetings,
Luc
