Re: Hows does your brain work
Maybe. Tell ya what: when I'm done with my masterpiece I'll transcribe the (my) guitar part and YOU can tell ME what I'm playing!!! LOL!!! We may both be surprised at my capabilities!!! LOL!!!
I love it when people say "easy to play" in reference to stringed instruments (guitar in particular). Yeh right. But actually very true but only IF you've been playing them for a long while and are very familiar with them.
Exactly the same applies to the piano i.e. you say it's harder to play "by ear" or "feel". I disagree but thousands would agree. Difference being I'm very familiar with the piano.
So by a process of deduction this could all boil down to nothing more than exactly how proficient you are on a particular instrument. Maybe the theory plays a big role when learning to play a particular type of instrument. But once you've got it down maybe it then doesn't play that big of a role anymore because you "instinctively" (very good word for this actually) know where the next chord progression or scale note is/could be/should be. And by a further process of deduction this comes down to practice. And at that point we're back to the thread topic!!! LOL!!!
