An Experimental Trip
Tonight I decided to play again this good "old" song, Hunter's Moon, composed by Andy Mckee in 2010. (Modified a lot by myself over time)
It's a tune I've tried to learn 4 years ago, but I never practiced it enough to be able to play it perfectly. But according to me, there would be no beauty without a "zest" of imperfection.
For the ones who know the original, you'll hear that I'm improvising a lot, so it doesn't really sound the same. But according to me, I think it's always a good thing to not copy the tune entirely. I always try to put a bit of my own feelings and personality in it.
There's a lot of mistakes, forgive me, this tune is REALLY hard to play, tiring for the fingers and the brain.
But I'm sure you can learn to enjoy the imperfection in music... It adds something unique to it. (Ok, haha, maybe it's just an excuse.)
But I'll quote Marilyn Monroe that one day said: "Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it's better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring."
Ridiculously mad and imperfect. But so happy.
I have to say that I felt so good, feeling again the atmosphere of this mysterious tribal tune alone in the darkness of my room. I agree. This sentence sounds strange. But who cares? Here is my meditational lonely evening.
Go hunting, try to catch the moon.
- Your rifle: a guitar.
- Your bullets: the strings, shooting notes.
