Moving while playing has been an "easy target" before on this Forum and I personally don't understand it. If moving while playing doesn't make a difference to your sound (and technically speaking.......it shouldn't), then why would that performance make a difference to you the listener if the performer is moving?

Michael Lowenstern has several (I would argue MOSTLY) sophomoric videos that I worthy of college kids on a bender with more time on their hands than sense. However I do like:

Unlike most of his offerings, there is some good advice in there.

There is also one where he points out a technique of shifting rhythmic emphasis one sixteenth note over at a time to practice for smoother scale like passages (if someone can point to this one........I can't find it right now).

Otherwise most of his other offerings are filled with unnecessary sarcasm and probably not worth getting worked up about.
