I See It As My Job To

If You're Playing Within Your Capability, What's The Point? If You're Not Pushing Your Own Technique To Its Own Limits With The Risk That It Might Just Crumble At Any Moment, Then You're Not Really Doing Your Job.

I've Learnt New Scales Through Playing Different Types Of Music, Like Indian Raga Scales, Gipsy Scales And Harmonically-based Jazz Scales.
