"People don't respond to what you do, they respond to why you do it."
This is a brilliant sax player perspective for every instrumentalist! Unleashing Creativity: The Musician's Perspective! Episode 306 In this captivating episode of the 'Talking Flutes' Podcast this week, Jean-Paul Wright ventures outside the realm of flutes to sit down with the multi-talented Steve Cole, the acclaimed composer, recording artist, saxophonist and educator. Jazz, improvisation, and the quest for one's unique musical voice—these are just a few of the themes explored in the latest episode of Talking Flutes. As a saxophonist, composer and educator, Steve brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table, offering insights that resonate with musicians of all stripes. In this episode, Steve discusses the journey of finding one's voice, not just in music, but in life. He delves into the importance of inspiration and exemplars in shaping one's artistic identity. By sharing his own experiences, Steve illustrates how embracing frustration and limitations can be the catalyst for developing a truly individual sound. Listeners will also be treated to Steve’s thoughts on the differences between classical and jazz musicians' approaches to their instruments. He sheds light on the curious nature of saxophonists and their quest for the perfect sound, regardless of the brand or make of their instrument. The discussion on the role of scales and modes in improvisation is enlightening, particularly for classical musicians looking to break free from their constraints. He encourages musicians to experiment and to see improvisation as a natural extension of their existing skills. Perhaps most compelling is Steve’s advice to up-and-coming musicians on how to promote themselves and get gigs. His entrepreneurial approach to music, emphasising the importance of community and purpose, is a valuable lesson for anyone looking to make their mark in the industry. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the intersection of technical skill, creativity, and personal expression in music. Steve Cole's wisdom and engaging storytelling make for an unforgettable listening experience that will leave you inspired to pick up your instrument and explore the vast possibilities of your musical voice.
