For my answer to this, I turn to some of the Giants in the world of Jazz: There’s no such thing as a wrong note. - Art Tatum There are no wrong notes in jazz, only notes in the wrong places. -Miles Davis It's not the note you play that's the wrong note - it's the note you play afterwards that makes it right or wrong. - Miles Davis To live a creative life, we must lose our fear of being wrong. -Joseph Chilton Pearce There are no mistakes in jazz - you are always a semitone from salvation! - church joke There are no wrong notes; some are just more right than others. – Thelonius Monk “Do not fear mistakes. There are none. - Miles Davis "There are no wrong notes, only wrong resolutions." "I think of all harmony as an expansion and a return to the tonic."— Bill Evans There are no wrong notes on the piano, just better choices.—Thelonious Monk. The point being made here is that it isn't the wrong note/mistake that defines anything. It is the resolution of the tension/problem. |
