posture
raze i used to feel self-conscious about the way i slouch when i play piano. i know how you're supposed to sit. my body won't be bent that way. i don't feel connected to the instrument unless i'm leaning into it and engaging in some sort of meaningful physical communion with the thing. years ago, katie took a picture of me playing her parents' old upright. my hair spilling out of a loose ponytail. i looked like a squid with scoliosis. when i watched a video of bill_evans playing a gig in norway five weeks before he died, i learned he had awful piano posture too. and i thought, "maybe i'm not in such bad company." 231114
