Fewer notes in all

More meaningful notes is all.

We know less is more.

It’s like words, really. There is everything to be said about economy of words, and more to be said about dissonance in words that need to be said. Spend your entire life trying to keep it lovely and pastoral and you ignore a vital side of nature. That means nature itself and your own nature. Pay tribute to all of it and all of you and use your notes and words economically and meaningfully.

I’ve always admired those few men who make sounds with their mouths only when it was important, for whatever reason, whether it be intellectual discourse or just plain humor. Sadly, I am not one of them. It’s too easy to hide behind noise and chatter and raise your hand if you’re guilty (my hand raised).
