"...one is aware of witchcraft without noticing a single magical gesture."
(C.D.F.Schubart on the harpsichord playing of C.P.E.Bach)
Is this the essence of what the best players do?

To quote Ken Shaw from a thread earlier this year:
Quote:
In his movies, you see Gene Kelly do things that are almost impossible, and you think, "Gee, that's almost impossible."
Fred Astaire does things that **are** impossible, and you think, "I could do that."
Meanwhile, I prove certain things are impossible every day.
