Making Beautiful Music Together…
I played the drums as a kid starting in 4th grade up into college. My family suffered through many hours (and headaches) of me beating the skins to jazz, funk, and rock music. When I started playing with the school band, I had to learn that making music wasn’t about how fast I could do flam-a-diddles or how loud I could play, but how I played in relation to the other band members. If the music called for adagio (slow & leisurely pace) it would be a bad idea to break into an In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida drum solo while everyone else is playing elevator music. The important thing was to match my playing to the other instrumentalists and to make beautiful music together. While I never got to rock stardom with my own entourage and groupies, I did learn that music is about how the entire band sounds not any individual player.
