““To the real musician, techniques are nothing more than tools to get you somewhere. We only need to focus on them long enough to find the correct and most efficient ways of doing thing.

I know musicians who have worked on simple techniques for years with little progress.'' He shook his head. ''That is because for years their attention has been on technique, not Music. That is a mistake.””
