Usually at work I use the phrase "make a mess, then clean it up" as a way to explain a learning process to new hires. I feel that phrase leans towards a 'learn by doing' approach and might be applicable here. You've hit a wrong note? Here's an opportunity to make something new!
Lovely as always Garreth! How was it playing a Fazioli?
Yes absolutely! We learn so much by doing something practically, and inevitably we aren't great when we start, but correcting those mistakes is so useful!
Thanks Chris! :) The Fazioli was nice, I like it. They also have a Steinway which I really like, and there's a new Bösendorfer which is awesome!

Love the way music can spark more creativity when it has the space to do so!
Exactly — and it's so important to give our students the space to learn why a mistake is a mistake!
