Your Musical Ideas, Imagination, and Skill at expressing them.
That's all I need...

Have no idea if its just marketing for Aldana's recording or what. Most recordings/tunes have titles including my own. In my case, as I said in the liner notes of one of my big band cd's, I had a vibe in mind when I wrote some of the charts but whatever the music evokes and wherever it takes an individual listener is fine with me. I'd actually prefer people to listen first and look at titles later. Its quite possible that a listener will get some emotional response that's completely unrelated to the title. I often title music after I write it.I do know where you're comin' from. Sometimes I feel the kind of explanation of inspiration or intent for instrumental music can be stilted or unnecessary or even just bullshit created by a label. I just listen.

It's like what the art critic, Leo Steinberg, wrote in Other Criteria about modern art of the period. Once an artist releases art into the art world, an artist's intent no loner matters. They become merely part of the art world.

I guess the thing for me is They are Telling You what to think, feel, etc about their music.
It also can seem to inflate the Meaning of the Music into something bigger and important than mere tunes.
I like that you Ignore that stuff and listen.
Stravinsky and Miles would ask at Sessions,
"How does it Sound?",
not, does my Self-Love come through here?
How about my Fear of, then Acceptance of Death?
It's ALL in that C6 voicing at Letter B...
I'm pretty sure I won't need to bring this up again...!
