The Prodigy dances with a microphone. Oh, I know what you're thinking. Here's old GG back to bend my ear with more tendentious twaddle about technology. Technology makes this ideal possible. I regret this greatly.
Technology now mediates between man and the aesthetic experience.
I must admit a certain longing for another opportunity to record with you as I did in my youth. Thus this modest proposal for a rather unique collaboration between us on the Beethoven Second. The Performer re-enters with a yellow pad and a pen, sits back down in front of the monitor, all ears. Free of the obligation to grind out he same pound of hamburger night after night on the concert stage, the 'New Performer' roams at will through musical literature, interprets it in the recording studio, then moves on to fresh challenges. In my view technology exercises a kind of invisible charity.
