I sincerely appreciate everyone's take on this. (Especially Karl, Seabreeze, and Dan Leeson's historic context.) Everyone provided great insights and different approaches/views on this topic.

A bit of time has passed since my original post, and (after reading this thread...and many others) I'm coming to the personal conclusion that defining auditory experiences by temperatures, colors, or flavors doesn't really lead to any type of informed discussion - except for, perhaps, specific isolated schools/groups which experience live feedback on sounds they are collectively experiencing. I'm more doubtful than ever that these words are usefully informative amongst musicians in general. I question why they are used at all.

A point that Karl made rings true to much of what we discuss on this bboard: live vs recorded. Karl also mentioned listening to the player up close (chamber music, etc.) How much of what we believe to be a performer's characteristics, might more accurately be attributed to the hall, the sound engineer, the microphone, etc.?

Likewise, Seabreeze's example of Jimmy Hamilton's playing, and Karl's example of hearing the same performer more than once and hearing a different sound (sound concept?) each time.

Well, now I'm off to listen to something interesting like warm dark chocolaty spread...whatever that means. <shrug>
