What the hеll are you talking about?  G00d j0b there t00.  That's not how I did it.  hеll ≠ he11 But I think we shouldn't swear anyway...

[...] My comment was about your persistently expressed idea that vision, originality, your inner ear telling you play it like this, etc. is in itself a justification for however anyone plays. Unless backed by musicianship, understanding, a desire to play according to what the composer wrote(this still allows endless possibilities), and taste, a vision means very little IMO. [...] We agree. The place where I sound like a broken record is in the encouragement of the exploration of "the endless possibilities" part, (assuming all of the other characteristics you mentioned are given) which are discovered when one is being true to one's musical conceptualization of a piece, or, more simply, "How am I gonna say this?" It is a matter of identification and honesty.

What the hеll are you talking about? G00d j0b there t00. That's not how I did it. hеll ≠ he11.... NO??  Wanna share the secret? BTW to Stores: Don't you want to stop putting the apostrophe in "its" when it's the possessive?  You keep wasting ink!

Chopinaddict is doing it differently but I'm sure he/she is also using the character map. The first person to do it inserted a blank character between the h and the e.

BTW to Stores: Don't you want to stop putting the apostrophe in "its" when it's the possessive? You keep wasting ink! Do I want to stop? Well, I don't feel a pressing need, but I did just look and you're, of course, correct. I didn't even notice that I'd added the little bugger.

Well, I don't feel a pressing need, but I did just look and you're, of course, correct. I didn't even notice that I'd added the little bugger. Not that this is the most pressing issue there is, like compared to world hunger or how people don't follow what's in the score .....but if you look a little further, I think you'll see that you ALWAYS do it! I can't blame you. There should be an apostrophe there, and I understand that there used to be, but at some point the grammarian powers-that-be decided to vamoose it (probably to save ink).  And sorry to have said anything about it, but to a stickler for correctness (which, after all, you are too!), the apostrophe sticks out like a pause between a trill and its Nachtschlag, or, I suppose, like a word misspelled with an extra letter in the middle.
