Transcript

Arriving at the instrument. Pause before touching the instrument. Notice the contact points. Feet. Chair. Floor. Acknowledge whatever state you're in without fixing it. You don't need to feel ready. The instrument doesn't need anything from you yet. Simply arrive together. You don't have to begin yet.
