“The source of inspiration can be any of the things:deep emotional experiences - say, romantic love or spiritual contemplation.I think such rare moments come only when you have total concentration. You are consumed in and by the music. I guess you could say that it is akin to contemplation.

Sometimes the inspiration of the other musicians you're playing with helps you reach this stage.” ThinkingMindSometimesMomentsHelpingInspirationSpiritualAttitudeAudienceEnvironmentEmotionalMusicianContemplationConcentrationState Of MindRomantic LoveRise Above Author:Dave Brubeck
