In order to get lost in music, it has to be there already.
When you create music, you can’t get lost. If you get lost, you simply stop. Because you are in the space before the note. You create it from yourself and then you release it through your body across the instrument and into the world.
It sounds.
But by that time you are no longer with it. You are realising it’s child, and the child of its child.
And that’s why you have to practise, so that you can let go of each note before it’s played, and know that your body will merge with the instrument and create exactly the sound that you intended.
