Actually Chris,
No one understands any of the creative arts or how they are created.
We only know what we like or how to create them to our taste, and
"still' we are left with fuzzy doubts.

I'm in that business)
All that stuff is irrelevant to making the kind of distinctions

"My reference to the 'average person' was, as I said, simply to cut
short her claim that understanding music meant understanding the
mechanics of music (changes of key etc). I was very surprised she
started off with that. How could that be the relevant meaning? If it
were, I have never understood any music in my life and neither have
millions of other music lovers who, like me, can barely read music."
