I can understand what you mean. The sound is the sound nomatter how it was made. But for me, the thing that really moved me was the fact that the sounds were being made by a real person in real time, the instrument was a tool for their expression. It wasn't just about the sound, but how the person was producing the sound. Getting to know the player and how they use their instrument. There's a very intimate connection between the player and the instrument that is just as important as the music itself. So it DOES matter to me where the sound is coming from and who the player is and how they're doing it. That makes it real and intriguing.
