Falsetto yet True

May 14, 2014 Chris Pearse

Andreas Scholl, the great German counter-tenor has a profound insight on learning:

“I have this phrase which sums up the process: Imitation, Contemplation, Emancipation. You begin by imitating, you observe yourself doing the action and then you can move on and become free.”

 

This really resonates with my experience but I only realised it reading this quote.
