Is the enormous worth of revered violins rooted in myth or merit?
I like this sentence: "Psychology plays an important role. If musicians think they are playing one of the greatest instruments in the world, they may actually play better."

This article is freaking long. I know this kind of experiment. That's fun. People don't really look for good music, but for a good "experience". Maybe... I'd love to here a genius playing a Stradivarius while going to work, even if I don't notice it's that fantastic (I would, though). Thanks Joshua :)

I played some basic piano pieces in an ice cream shop in Canada. The same feeling on that point: when music stops, nothing happens. After few minutes some people would notice it and came to ask me to play again.
I like the feeling. Music becomes important when you're missing it. Just like water.

I like your positive conclusion on what could seem to be a negative experience :)
So you would claim music is more important than ice cream? ;) |
