Music is stronger than you are…but for three minutes you get to be the conductor of the power of the notes and rhythms…you get to dance on the wave…you get to ride on the edge of something with more depth and force than you could ever wrap your mind around.
This is what the artist knows…the wave is infinitely more powerful than the wave rider.
This is why people listen. Despite all your short falls and the vast differences between you and each individual listening…they’re captivated by you riding the wave, playing the music. Harnessing an infinite power, ever so briefly, and opening their minds to something other.
