Improvising life
Sep. 15th, 2004 04:06 pmTaurus
Even if you're not a jazz fan, you'll thrive in the coming week by using a modus operandi that resembles jazz. I suggest, therefore, that you improvise frequently. Experiment with intricate, strong, and playful rhythms. Infuse your yearning for freedom with humor. For further insight about how to proceed, meditate on the following clues from three jazz greats. Ornette Coleman: "Jazz is the only music in which the same note can be played night after night but differently each time." John Coltrane: "You can play a shoestring if you're sincere." Miles Davis: "Don't play what's there, play what's not there."
But, but... I am the melody that ties it all together, not the note that breaks out of the refrain! Fine, I will be open to the need to improvise frequently, and infuse it with humor.
