April 2023 Guitar Newsletter: What’s Behind A Live Music Event

When we watch an artist, we witness a product that has deep roots.  We are only seeing the blossom, the fruit so to speak, of a long growing process.  Not only is the event a manifestation of their creativity but also an accumulation of their past work and experiences.  We don’t see all the inspirations, teachers, mentors, books, musicians, music, recordings, art studies, instrument knowledge, schooling, endless practice, rehearsals and past concerts and much more behind the momentary performance.
