Where We Go When

Mary Prescott's piano improvisation blog Where We Go When, documenting her transition from classical to improvising pianist.

Gratitude.

Mary February 22, 2012

My utmost gratitude to you who have given me opportunities to experience life in a boundless explosion of energy, understanding, love, strength, expression, and curiosity. Living out the "what if" has been my fortune and privilege. I wouldn't trade it for anything. Far beyond any attempt to cover up any of those trails, wherever they've led, I'd rather secure a footprint to those places. An etching into a tree trunk; outlined by a crude, but happy little heart. And the purity and beauty and honesty in everything we've shared will not be forgotten.

Now.

About the Blog

A yearlong project that existed as a portal into an unexplored world, a highly trained classical pianist thrust herself into the foreign and terrifying land of improvisation.

"A journey that starts here and goes where. 365 days. 365 improvs. A classical pianist tries to get free."
