Play From Your Heart
It seems to be more and more popular these days for guitarists to play a flurry of notes all over the fretboard at blinding speeds. I won’t lie to you and say I don’t want to play faster, but when does it reach the point of being too ridiculous? When does it just become boring to see someone play insanely fast.
In my opinion, I think it happens when you lose the heart in it all. Can you play fast and from your heart? I don’t see why not. But when technique and skill take over meaning and passion in guitar playing, I’d say it’s gone too far.
What do you think? Name some guitarists you think play fast with feeling, and others who just play fast. Of course, it’s all up to opinion.
Just play from your heart.
