What another time here for #Afri-inleo initiative and this is my second time writing which shows i will be updated as the initiative continue further. So the topic today which i am dwelling on is talking about two personalities in the music world which are the vocalst and also the instrumentalist asking which one do i prefer and is important to me, without talking too much or beating around the bush, one should have known what my answer will be from the onset if they knew me so well.
To me i really prefer instrumentalist over a vocalist and this is not because i always play the instrument but there are different levels to this things because i have been priviledge to mix with different music personalities and also travel over states through music which has made me exposed to different things and way some tackles music, there should be a reason for me picking instrumentalist over vocalist even after i said bith are important in music but you know one will surely supercede the other.
Good instrumentalist Sweet taste
The reason for my sub heading really emphasise on good instrumentalist because a lot of people tag themselves as an instrumentalist but they are not that musically sound, i wwent kfor a program last week and on getting there they called the minister to come and sing and only for him to mouth the stage and he was singing perfectly fine then the keyboardist was playing a semitone off the key which the singer was, imagine having a good vocalist without instrumentalist, it will surely potray the vocalist useless but imagine the vocalist is not that sound and all the instrumentalist knows music so well they will surely cover up any mistake.
The music intro, Rhythm also are always making a singer go widely known faster. Instrumentalist is not only a keyboardist but all, drummers, guitarist, trumpeter, talking drummer and so on, Music is not interesting without them, one can manage an average vocalist with good instrumentalist but you can't manage good vocalist with bad instrumentalist. Imagine the scenerio where i said i went to a program and the vocalist was a nice singer if it was the other way round and it was a group of professional instrumentalists, if the vocalist mistakenly go off or do a little mistake the work of the instrumentalist is to quickly adjust to it and follow and make the music go well.
Music as a Whole
Music generally as i have said before that everything works hand in hand and they make harmonious sound and dynamism follows. But the speciality of instrumentalist in a gathering is really intresting but emphasis on the Good instrumentalist.
For me maybe because of my exposure and not just because i play the instrument but i have been able to meet lot of people and the ideas which they have towards music
Music is therapeutic, and it can't be done anyhow, but a pleasant way. See you again next time on the afri-inleo initiative.
