People Who Understand Beethoven Don’t Play Beethoven

Sean McClure Season 5 Episode 11

Many people proclaim to understand something because they study it. But you cannot know a thing by studying the thing, you have to create the thing. Playing Beethoven is replicating what you see in front of you, it is not creating the thing you see in front of you. Those who don’t create don’t understand.  It doesn’t matter what you create, but if you want to understand something you must attempt to build it.
