Technique is communication: the two words are synonymous in

Summary

This quote suggests that technique and communication are closely linked in the role of conductors. In the context of conducting music, technique refers to the skills, tools, and understanding required to effectively control an ensemble. However, the quote suggests that this technical mastery is not meaningful if it doesn't facilitate communication. Conductors must be able to effectively transmit their intent, interpretation, and musical ideas to the musicians they are leading. In this sense, technique becomes a means of effective communication, allowing conductors to express their artistic vision and connect with the musicians to create a unified performance.

I think one of my favorite things to do is just lock myself up in a small room and listen to music and watch films for a day. Also I just like seeing my friends. We have pizza parties which means I get four friends round, we eat a pizza and we're really lazy and we play PlayStation.

In una parola, ero troppo codardo per fare quello che sapevo essere giusto, cosÃ¬ come ero stato troppo codardo per evitare di fare quello che sapevo sbagliato.

Genio assolutamente naturale, scoprii questa linea di condotta tutto da solo.

There are plenty of good reasons for fighting, I said, but no good reason ever to have without reservation, to imagine that God Almighty Himself hates with you, too. Where's evil?
