I have, for many weeks now,been following the path to practice outlined in Kenny Werners book, "Effortless Mastery." The hardest part for me has been getting into what is basically a Buddhist mind set. I don not pretend to be an expert on Buddhism - but the basic tenet of emptying ones mind and working on he exercices until mastery is acheived holds. The stickiest part, at least for me, is not holding expecations and doing he work free of desire.
Related to the above thought I wanted to put he latest recording I posted on Reverb Nation. I was playing a volunteer piano gig at he retirement home and on a whim I brought my MP3 recorder along. I was actually rather pleased when I played the tracks back. Some of my bad playing habits are still apparent, but not nearly as bad as they were before I started down this new path.
Thanks again for listening,
Best,
Cameron
