and perplexing. What on earth makes you think I don't go to concerts? For example, I served on the boards of two professional music ensembles, and when I did I attended nearly all of their concerts, often with guests such as Cho-Liang Lin, the Cleveland Quartet and Jerome Lowenthal (for whom I stepped on stage and turned pages, as I did for other professional pianists). I also got to meet and chat with all these people about their performances.
Not that this makes me better than anyone else, but "go to concerts and see for yourself"? "Simply not even close to true"? David Smith, who is a well-known jazz trumpet player in NY, and a member of the Philadelphia Orchestra seem to agree with me. Do they not go to enough concerts?

This Philadelphia Orchestra?

I don't see him listed.
Don't tell me you read that as being one and the same person.
Unless you believe Dave doubles on tuba! =:-0
Yeah, actually I did read it as that. I missed the comma.
OK then please tell me which musicians have you seen that fit this description? "and many of today's performers try to imitate that kind of perfection in live performance, which doesn't necessarily guarantee a perfect or even a very good performance in other ways." Since you seem to be agreeing with David Smith. this is what he is claiming. Who is doing this that you have seen in concert?
