Following recent discussion and speaking of the musician’s performance, I was always wondering, can musicians devote themselves equally to the voice and to the instrument when playing and singing at the same time? And all that in their perfection? Will at some point the performance of the instrument "suffer" when the delivery gets stronger through their voice or vice versa?
For instance, should a singer like Nina, let somebody else accompanied her on the piano in order to get the perfection out of the both performances?
The result would be really - perfection in full, I mean that is logical. But then another question arises.
Would she sing equally better when she uses her voice only and does not accompany herself on the piano in comparison with the previously mentioned combination?
I mean, one man show gives you certain advantages. Whatever comes out is under your control and it gives you the huge amount of freedom in performing. At one point you can decide to play faster and to sing faster, you can decide to improvise, you can do whatever damn you want.
