Balázs Rodek tells us “Playing live is always special. I like the whole process, for me it is like preparing for an Olympic event.

I start preparing weeks before the gig. The goal is to know the songs really well, really deep, to know every aspect of the material, to get your best shape for the concert. When I practice, I always look for new ideas, fresh thoughts for a song, even if I played that for a long time. Because in this way I believe you can open the door for all the good energies that hopefully will occur during your concert and minimize the risk of making mistakes.

Mistakes… well, we are not machines. We do mistakes – sometimes you hit the wrong note at the wrong time etc., but for me it doesn’t matter. Mistakes make the music live, so I try to handle them as a part of the music. How can I make them sound good? How can we make them fit into context? That is the point I think.

Of course, the preparation period can be frustrating, exhausting. Sometimes it is really hard to concentrate, hard to get the motivation, to face self-doubt—just like training for a sport event. But in the end, I know all is worth it.”
