Space... the final frontier. Great line from one of our favorite TV series (and movie), Star Trek, but it also seems to apply to maturity in playing as well. It's as if "not playing" is the last thing a developing musician thinks to add to the arsenal of the techniques of finer ensemble protocols. We've had the fortune of participating in some groups recently that drove this point home quite well personally. What a pleasure it is to give, and to receive space.
We explored this in a recent weekly installment of JazzMando Tips and Tricks, "Respect the Silence. Take a few moments to review.
Silence is golden.
You betcha...
