Musicians

Beethoven, Bach, Mozart, Brahms, Hayden, Albeniz, Vivaldi, and many more great musician had done and paved the path for you. You can learn lots of things from them. You can find lots of wonderful piece of art in music and opuses from them.

The classic music is the base of all kinds of music. A building can not stand without base(s). So, if your building is like a feather that goes with wind from places to places, it would not be the building for you to live for lifetime.

The Beethoven's "Für Elise" for me is like the "Mona Lisa" painting. It has everything in it. Sadness or happiness, being good or bad, simplicity or complexity. A great eternal song. It always echoes in my ears. When I am writing songs, I am thinking about it at the same time.

I never get to school to learn it and no one had taught me about it. I learn it by my heart, by my passion. I never get tired and bored playing music or just a single song for twelve or more hours repeatedly. Playing a song for times. Every time you learn more, how to play it more nice, and you get it more. You understand things much better by workout.

I feel more love playing the Für Elise after years times and times. Most of time I feel like my soul is flying in azure sky or in heaven with nymphs.

There is a point, a great secret and it is: "The thing that comes from heart goes to heart." If you play notes with love, orderly and precisely then you will be more successful. Accuracy is prior to speed. Put accuracy on top of your priority list. Joe Satriani, surely the great guitarist, do the same and written it in his book. First play it accurate then go with higher speed. The more accuracy first, the more you can play with speed soon.

I have something else for progress I experience it. It is: "Don't be afraid of mistakes and faults.", "Don't panic!", "Don't fear any kind of hard rehearsal", and just be cool and confront music without any tension and stress. Just negotiate with different licks and get in the way of the music you are playing. Another point is a musician is an artist. He or she must care about other arts, too; Like painting, photography, cinema, theater, beauty, nature or every beautiful thing around you. Don't be afraid if they affect you music; otherwise, DO LET THEM TO! Sometimes, I go to art galleries watching pictures and seeing photos to promote me to create music. Sometimes, I think about what people like, care and I try to create something like that. I like photography, graphic, writing, reading art books and lots of thing but %99 of my attention and my focus is on music. As a musician and player %99 of my focus of my music attention is on electric guitar.

"Never say never." I never say never or never forget to think and care about other things. DO LET THEM to play parts in your playing and music achievement. I've seen and listened to lots of guitarists, bands, players, and musicians. I've read their biographies and found something important and valuable on all of them. Everything in their life affected their music career. Even the colors of their instrument or the way they dressed affects their job. Everything you feel, think, and care DO AFFECTS your music. Most artist and musician of course are emotional, with wonderful feelings, with wonderful creativity like the God. And it is a matter of delicacy to care about this and not to ignore or prevent it. Some of musician failed in the middle of ways or after years they give up feeling that kind of mentioned feeling.

YOU ARE DIVINE, a tiny piece of the God and surely that is enough for you to be like him a grand master creator. Don't care if some people make fool of you. Don't ignore your feelings. Don't underestimate it. Be persistent and don't give up if you get bored, create new things instead a specific one. You can reach sky if you want to. You are ideal divine. Respect yourself, others, music and your instrument. Clean and take care of your instrument. Don't leave it on a dusty bad place. Take care of it just like a baby.

Surely, your godly creation power will help you to progress. You are your best teacher and guider. Cultivate it instead of leave it all alone. If you be persistent, If you exercise precisely and hard surely you can make stones and walls to listen to you.

The passion for music is my first and best one that I can take. Forever I am with it and it is with me. Till next time, pals.
