That image was captured quite well in the shape of two (pretend) judo exponents sparring on the cover of the 1985 album ‘Flags’, being myself and pianist Patrick Moraz. The music here covers a lot of ground: the repetitive and static opening, the violently rhythmic, the lyrical and impressionistic, the dying embers of the unaccompanied piano ending. It has form, which of course the drummer can do much to shape, a bit like the potter at her wheel watching the shape of the pot emerge from small movements of fingers and hands. Not too shabby for the first time we’d ever played together. We drummers, aided and encouraged by YouTube, tend to spend too much time learning to play alone and out of context. My preferred context remains, of course, with other human beings in real time. But even if you hate that idea, and want no more than to stay home with your kit and produce tracks, sooner or later you’re going to need some off-instrument skills. Any musician seems to require two sets of skills: on-instrument and off-instrument. The first set tends to be acquired through deliberate practice of the instrument, often alone and thus out of context, because those skills will almost always be used when playing with others. The second set are perhaps harder to come by and less tangible. They include listening, marketing, leadership and organisational skills of the kind acquired only by human music-making with others. They derive from human interaction. The first set is heavily prioritised by practitioners over the second, arguably at their peril. You need a balance of both.
