Music Must be Felt and Not Simply Heard

I'm realizing that in order to play the music for my recital well, I have to feel it. Otherwise, it's just notes that are meaning less. I think music is 80% about the meaning or feeling that you attach to it. Why is your favorite piece or song your favorite? Probably cause it makes you feel something. So, that's my goal for my recital, to put my nerves aside and just feel the music. I figure if I'm nervous, my audience will be too since most of them will know me, and I'd hope that they'd be wishing the best for me. So, maybe I can make them feel something, besides sleepy that is....

And in other news, the GAP at Briarwood mall has closed. Don't try to go there to exchange anything, cause it's not there as I found out today. I'm not very happy about this...
