Um, I'm really bad about putting up questions at the bottom, which like rewards bad behavior and doesn't reward patients.

0:21.2

So my apologies.

0:22.5

But lovers you're going to love.

0:24.2

That's good.

0:26.8

How familiar are you with Nari Soul?

0:28.8

I feel you three would have wonderful piano.

0:30.7

Yes, she's on my list of folks that I want to reach out to.

0:34.2

I was going to mention that to you, Adam.

0:36.5

Because I just watched a video of hers. I've been subscribing and watching her channel for a while now. And I think she has some great stuff. But she has a really good video about how to record grand piano. And, you know, I'm thinking about, we're always talking about redoing how we're micing stuff here with the pianos and things like that. And she did some really good kind of in

pandemic private like we're dealing with an engineer that was in another place via Zoom,

which you wouldn't think would work, but some nice tests on a great Fazioli that she has access

1:03.9

to for a while. So step one, get a Fasioly. Step one, get aphasioly.

1:11.3

But her stuff is good.

1:11.9

Have you watched her channel at all, Adam? Yeah, oh, yeah. I love Nauru. Yeah, we should do. We should bring her on. That'd be great. Yeah, she has great. I love her piano technique. Her hand technique is really, really advanced. That's got a really cool question. How do you guys? Oh, sorry.

1:08.1

The overlapped here.

1:09.4

Go back to yours.

1:10.4

Sorry.

1:11.2

So Pat says, how do you guys stay inspired and continue to learn considering the advanced skill level knowledge of theory and experience you already have? It's a great question. Like, how do you stay in it, right? Like, how do you... I mean, I was just talking to someone about this the other day. Like, the thing is, is like, you know, if like, you know, the players you look up to, right?

1:51.5

Like, I listened to Jeffrey Keiser and I think like, wouldn't it be great if I could do that?

1:56.5

But I doubt if Jeffrey listens to himself and says the same thing, like, ah, I'm, that's it for me. I'm settled. This is what I can do. Like, for a lot of us, we'd be like, oh, man, if I could play my left hand could play like that or if I could swing that hard, oh, man, like, wouldn't that be a mate? Like, I'd be set. I would never ask for anything again, right? That's what we think about everything. If I could just have this money or that car or whatever. But we all know that that's just not how it is once we get virtually everything we want. You know what I mean? It's like it's that all goes away so, so fast. So I think the thing is, is you're never, you know, like I still feel like I did when I was a teenager and striving, you know, for
