Music is a Physical Skill and Must Be Practiced as Such
Episode 156
Monday, 9 March, 2026

Videos, books, and podcasts are all examples of ways to LEARN ABOUT music. However, none of those will allow you to LEARN music. Music isn't about what you know in your head. It's about what you know with your hands or your voice or whatever touches your instrument. Whether you're a performer or a composer, it's crucial that you understand this and practice your craft accordingly.
