    Great lesson, Matt. Sorry I missed it. You’ve given me good things to work on.

    I love the way when you say something sounds clunky and awkward it sounds just like me, lololol. Yes, things to work on indeed.

    I have trouble identifying what is the filler vs the melody, but I’ll pay more attention and try to get more dynamics in. It was one of my goals for this year but I always forget and just focus on the notes and the speed.

    Just watched the lesson. It was very good, Matt. Love to see more on this topic and especially the “filler stuff”. I recognize filler on piano numbers and it does so much to fill out the song just like Matt says: between the lyrics/melody notes. There must me some “tricks” that pianists/musicians use over and over again for those fillers…….
