Unless you’ve ever been part of a touring company of musicians or actors, it’s hard to understand how extraordinary it is for people to travel from many different places, meet, exchange pleasantries, and perform. In the best of circumstances, the people involved have known each other for years and have performed together for many of those years all over the world. Still, it is something of a miracle that these disparate people meet and manage to produce music that requires mutual intercommunication and emotional complexity.
You can imagine what pleasure that gives the performers, and as a result, what pleasure is transmitted to the audience.
