    When I was in college, I’d leave my piano class and go to the practice rooms with my sax. Then my student teacher from my piano class would come into the practice room building and play something insane like you just did here and make me question my whole existence hahahahha. The practice rooms were the most discouraging times of my college life and I’m sad I had such a defeatist attitude then. But you know… the stress of college and all and no real understanding of how to channel that energy. But now, it’s encouraging and exciting to listen to!! Much appreciated ✊🏿 🎷

      I'm in that exact boat. I left university last year, feeling defeated having only completed one year. But after a year off I've decided to return and give it another go in September. How do you get over this feeling?! At times, like after watching this, I just think wow I'm never gonna get there.

      The practice room is just a gym for musicians, and if you approach it with that same mindset then you’ll realize that everyone feels vulnerable there, but ultimately we’re all in there to improve ourselves and more than likely are going to try to foster a positive practicing environment. Ironically enough, the people who might be the strongest are the least concerned with how they sound because they’ve overcome the initial fear of vulnerability and developed that into their routine. They’re also more than likely the most eager to help because they’ve been in the same situation you have. Sure, you’ll never escape the show-offs, but ultimately they’re not there for the right reasons.
      If you just have a general idea of what you need to get done and how to assess your problem areas, you’ve had a successful workout. Isolate your problem areas, slow them down and go over them with a metronome, and then get them back up to speed. And most importantly TAKE BREAKS.
      Now if you have the luxury of being able to practice at home with a digital keyboard or a mute or whatever you essentially have your own at-home gym. This is good for developing your routine before you have the confidence to hit the practice rooms or practice when the rooms are closed, but it is VERY easy to become distracted. I would encourage you to create a routine there, and then force yourself to leave the house with a game plan. You’ll feel much more comfortable and accomplished when you do.
      Hope this helps! I wish I would’ve had this kind of mindset when I was in college, so I hope you can get some use out of it.

    Very nice! It's amusing to listen to the original recording. Trane must have handed Tommy Flanagan the music in the studio and said "1, 2, 1234." Tommy Flanagan was a tremendous pianist, but he folds on this solo. Here he is, seeking redemption 20 years later. ua-cam.com/video/WaYFopPQAEY/v-deo.html
