Come to Your Senses

See: The page in front of you. See every dynamic, articulation, reminders.

Feel: Each breath filling your lungs, all the way down.

Hear: The rich and sweet sound of each and every note, every pure tone.

See: Yourself standing, your posture, your confidence. Left foot forward!

Feel: Support from your low abs, sides, back and legs.

Hear: Listen to how your sound fills your room.

See: The airstream flowing, like a raging river or a tiny laser beam.

Feel: Your feet against the floor, your weight shifting from one foot to the other.

Feel: The momentum of your melodic line, the way it pushes and pulls.

Hear: The vibrato pulsating.

See: The characters and setting of your piece. See the trees, the city, the sky.
