Re: Why do Classical musicians look so miserable?

I agree. Serious, strive for perfection, please the conductor, etc. I "move" a bit more than I used to when soloing or playing in the group. And a bit more than that when the Dixieland chart comes up. But, it's what it sounds like that counts, not how it looks. I would doubt a symphony or concert band full of wildly moving and smiling musicians would lure young people (or 76 year old Mick Jagger fans) over from the pop scene (which, IMHO, has sucked since about 1988). Nor would such happiness mean millions for the top classical players as opposed to maybe $100K or so.
