I don't know if the right word is talented, but I do think, not bragging, that I pick up thing's fast.

Eventually he became a tight bassist, but towards the end gave it up because every time he would look forward to the next milestone on improving his playing it took him a lot of effort. His answer was, "I had no natural talent".. Cool input Jose! I don't know either - but one thing I do know is that most stories to backup the notion of natural talent often are very unscientific. So for this specific story - do we know if your friend has the same "baggage" as you? In other words has he had music playing in his home since he was a young kid? (and have you?) There are many ways one could practice the sense of "periodicity" - and there also many ways one could have got this ability "for free" as a child. Oh an by the way I have the worst sense of periodicity in history - in fact I wrote a whole album which almost doesn't contain one single 4/4 beat... I just can't (or couldn't rather, I have been working on that) naturally feel an even beat. (check it out at your own risk). Of course I never revealed the reason behind those odd beats - we just called it experimental fusion!! |
