Fragments of taste, smell, music, noises and all kinds of sense products induce mnemonic bursts and make us recall places and happenings. It's how human mind is structured: full of interactive links.Μαρία Δριμήhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15287202842348000361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8060605.post-67845629852852358602009-10-27T17:01:59.325+00:002009-10-27T17:01:59.325+00:00my sense of music and place is very strong.I remem...my sense of music and place is very strong.I remember being glued to the wall the first time I heard RVW variations on a theme by thomas tallis in the old barnes and noble on 16th street.

There's nothing particularly wrong with traditional large scale venues, but if they're just about the only musical places, then the population at large is going to loose touch with the elements of music that cannot be captured in recordings, such as the full timbres of the instruments and the visceral connection one can feel with live performers.
