Just thought I'd drop this in. If we all forget what we've heard, why do conductors hold rehearsal sessions with their orchestras of professional musicians who are quite competent enough to play through a complex piece of orchestral music on their own without a conductor?
What benefit can the conductor achieve from the rehearsal if the players are incapable of remembering the often subtle requirements he requires in terms of orchestral balance? Or are we going to allow such professionals "golden ears" on account of their musical talent & training?
