silence is very imporant. The silence between the notes are as important as the notes themselves.

umm... ok.
The music industry is a cruel and shallow money trench where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side.

Staccato or not, there are still things called "rests." And making sure they happen can be very important.

Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy, it is the wine of a new procreation, and I am Bacchus who presses out this glorious wine for men and makes them drunk with the spirit.

I bet you didn't know that.

Yes, dynamics are also very important, but dynamics and rests are two different things.
2004-12-31, 9:27 AM #12
Yeah. Dynamics refers to the relative amplitude of music being played, but it doesn't include the absence of music. Theoretically, you can make a faked "rest"--which would be, specifically, an exaggerated decrescendo--out of dynamics, but rests are the total cessation of music at a certain period in the song.

Well, to be technical, a rest is a total cessation of the sound produced by a single instrument at a certain point in the song. If all the music stops, then you get a große Pause (grand pause).

Er, yeah, that's what I meant. When the music played by a single instrument completely stops at a certain time, and for a written amount of time.
