Howard,
It's not anywhere near my place to give you technical advice --- even compared to my best days you outplay me under the table, under the floor and under the basement!
But these words came from every good conductor I ever had and even such greats as Yehudi Menhuin: Music is not played with the fingers (or with the mouth...), you hear it, you feel it!
I have recordings that prove when I concentrate on the musical character, the dynamics and responsiveness take much better care of themselves than when I concentrate on them directly.
You are a fantastic musician, now just shine how much you enjoy the music and the instruments: from your discussions here and from your MP-3s, it's obvious you do!
