OH, also, had to edit my answer to the video's title a bit because the audio got messed up and so it wasn't really a full answer, but to add on to what I mentioned...
READ a lot of music, and do it frequently. IMSLP.org is a great resource for a lot of free, legal out-of-print sheet music, and going through and reading as much as you can will give you tons of practice. Reading sheet music is like reading a foreign language, which can be brutally difficult in the beginning, but eventually becomes as natural as "speaking" language, like performing music. It just takes time and lots of patience.

    Music has tastes to me, too. I don't tastes in my mouth when I play it, but all of music analogies are food related, cuz thats a close concept to me. C is buttery, e flat is like the fat from a steak. But its the thought, not the sound. My favorite cello sounds like walnuts tho, so tone quality and even octave affects it. Higher notes get more umame and savory until the a string then it gets sweet and finally sour

    Hey Adam, when you change the colours on yourself, even though I immediately recognize that it's not a realistic depiction of a skin tone etc, I can still appreciate that it looks kind of cool. Do you get that kind of reaction when you see notes in the "wrong" colour, or is more of a feeling of discomfort?

    Re: the mental instability helping with music - I always think it's the other way around. Music is sometimes helpful for mental illness (to a point anyway). Before I was a musician, I had a kind of nervous breakdown (basically the result of anti-depressants plus autism plus anxiety), and for months afterwards I listened to music almost non-stop. It didn't 'cure' me, but it was a consolation. I sometimes think it makes people pursue music more passionately when they're trying to get away from something or console themselves. Although that doesn't always make the person make *good* music, it just makes the person make music at any cost (Daniel Johnston, as an example). I suppose that sometimes, the music that someone like that makes happens to be also good. Going back to me if I compared my music when I was in a bad place in my life, to now, where I'm pretty happy, I'd say the former wasn't better (in fact it was worse, because I was less experienced) but it was just ... *weirder*

But... intricate voicings and licks requiring my fingers to fit between the black keys are next to impossible. Which is better? I will adapt, (and improvise) that’s the best I can do.

Something I've been struggling with is that I've been listening to many recordings, but I feel like I don't truly understand their meaning. For example, everyone says that A Love Supreme is this genius, spiritual work. I think it sounds cool, but don't get why people think so much of it... What do I need to learn/listen to in order to "get" jazz?

    I have been learning all the old clefs for my studies. The best tip is looking at it with intervals. Never translate one clef into another, its to slow. Try to rember where C is and get other tones from looking at the interval and the key the piece is in.

    As a french horn player in classical music you more often than not have to transpose to the key the piece is written in (long story), which also changes during the pieces. And I totally agree with you! Though I'm not really looking for the c, I transpose the first note of a section and then only think in intervals.

    Hey Adam, I’ve always been able to understand what you mean when you talk about your synesthesia. What I haven’t been able to get it why I could so easily grasp this when you made it seem like it was such a hard concept to convey (when you say things like “...if that makes any sense”) and I finally realized that I have a very similar conception. Not really of the notes but of the chords that come out of them (ex: Bb dominant 7 is blue but as you add more extensions the color gets darker, more purple) and I just thought that was cool! Also I’ve been watching and rewatching your videos for a long time and pretty much everything I have a good understanding about in theory comes from your channel, so thank you :)

    Hey adam, I'm curious, when you were a child, did you have a teacher that used colored stickers to mark the notes on your instrument ? Because a lot of people that have your type of synesthesia seems to have colours been printed in their mind in relationship to a note from that kind of habit. For exemple, a teacher putting a purple sticker with the letter "E" on a piano for the beginners to remember.

    Also Adam, love that you've talked a little bit about health and mental health. This is something we all struggle with. One thing that has helped immensely after the past few years was going by this motto, health first, no matter what, health first. Then my music, my friends, my life, my happiness all fell in line in a gentle and warm manner. Don't get me wrong life isn't candyland, but when my health took priority: sleeping well, eating well, exercising, fasting etc everything else just started to work. My work was better etc. I was so happy you said running was helpful. I just want to say I love how were all in it together. Proud of all your work!

    The answer to the learning how to read bass clef question you gave was extremely helpful. Only twice did I use bass clef, in 4th grade when I played the double bass for one year as 12th grade when I was a bass in my high school acapella group Aces Angels.

    My wife is a B3 organ jazzer. I’m the guitarist who carries the B3. Anyway, she has perfect pitch and sees sound as color. Which means she always can tell if my b string is flat. She uses this ability to basically never forget songs. And when at a big concert she often has to close her eyes because the stage lights never match the color of the music she sees. She is very annoyed by this. On the upside: some years ago we once saw a friend’s blues band CD release party at B.B. Kings old club in L.A. The guy played all original music, and not just the usual 1-4-5 traditional blues. A year later the guy had a return show there, and his B3 player couldn’t make the gig, so he called Jocelyn at the last minute. She was able play all this guitarists originals without rehearsal or charts because she could recall all the keys and chords changes by way of their colors. Jocelyn Michelle jazz organ band on YT.

    Hey, Adam! Question for a future Q&A: There is a documented (albeit anecdotal) phenomenon known as the "Ballmer Effect" where one's computer programming performance peaks after a few drinks. I imagine the logic is that a modest quantity of alcohol will lower your inhibitions, enabling you to try unusual or unorthodox ideas. I know you have spoken about bad experiences performing under the influence, but do you think this effect applies to music performance (or maybe just composition) as well?
