Despite the imperfections, misalignments, disagreements and disconnection of the people making the music…the music connects on the deepest levels.
The music overcomes the dysfunction of the group that is making it.
We hear other artists’ final product and think there must have been something magical about the people who made it. But no. Not at all. The magic is that despite the people NOT being extra special, the music somehow turns out to be extra special.
It’s not simply synergy. It’s not simply one plus one equaling three.
It’s one plus one equals…emotional and spiritual connection for the people involved and for the people who will never know the makers of the music. It’s an equation that doesn’t make any sense…but it’s true.
The fact that the makers of the music aren’t magical and yet come out with something that is…
How it goes from one thing to the other is a lovely mystery and is truly the miracle of music.
