Episode 9: Balancing Technique and Aesthetics
Manage episode 366612766 series 3476834
Join us for this latest instalment of The Practice Project Podcast from nkoda, the all-in-one digital sheet music app, as we offer more fresh perspectives on music practice and performance.
In a wide-ranging discussion, framed by Charise Hastings’ 2014 article on the tension between technical and aesthetic approaches to music, Bethany and Riki look at how combining these two contrasting aspects can transform musical learning and performance.
Learn the importance of aesthetic goals, practicing immersively, and interpreting music to suit your individual personality and style - even if it means breaking with tradition (and perhaps leaving your comfort zone).
Whether you're a performer wanting to elevate your musicianship, or an educator needing to augment your teaching, this episode delivers key observations on how to successfully combine technical precision with aesthetic expression, and deliver more profound performances.
