Freund Hans: If nobody cares if it is played perfectly, then there is no worth in playing the piece at all. You must remember that when you play something perfectly (or even adequately) it will matter to those who listen. (If I had 250,000EU for each note I've clammed in performance, I'd be a richer man than you are, Hans. In fact, if I had 1EU for each note I've clammed in performance, I might still be richer, at least if I had invested wisely the performance indiscretions of my early years.) _______________________________________________ post: horn@memphis.edu unsubscribe or set options at https://pegasus.memphis.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/options/horn/archive%40jab.org
