Be true to yourself and persistent in following your interests.
Express your musicality movie#
Find a movie or painting that has a similar mood to the piece you’ve been playing and listening to. Then, try to write your own piece based off the ideas in that song.Īlso, try to immerse yourself in other forms of art that have similar feelings or concepts. Absorb the message and intention of the piece. Listen or play that song/piece or composer repeatedly.
That’s a connection with music that you can repeat and allow to grow. To find such songs, take note of when you had a meaningful listening experience or performance. But when you have the choice of what songs to practice, I suggest playing exclusively only the music that seriously strikes your heart. Of course, there are times, maybe for a certain performance, when we need to learn songs that we don’t feel very strongly about. Limit yourself to experiencing the music that resonates with you the most. I suggest you try three things: narrow your musical interests, memorize your music deeply, and enhance your musical feelings. Doing so will more meaningfully affect you and your listeners. You can experience music on a deeper level, whether you’re a beginner playing for fun or an experienced professional.
