"That rigidity in classical playing is actually quite recent. With a few exceptions, notably the music of Bach, players of the baroque and early classical eras were *not* expect to play the music as it was written."Hi Josh,
Well there's something to think about. I'm glad you said that as I assumed that it has been 'rigid' since the beginning. If that is so then there perhaps there needs to be some sort of a change in paradigm in the classical expression to the modern audience. Or perhaps a return to the paradigm that it once was. Not sure as I will have to think about that. Maybe this is part of why so many of us grow restless with classical in that we have come to expect each score to be a particular way. You mean that there is room for playing with the music? Hmmm, interesting.
