That's not what "Is a band one person?"

That's actually exactly what it means. Are you even reading your own posts?

We've always agreed whether it's been public or not. Him and I share a lot of the same beliefs, unsurprisingly.

what the question is asking is would the chair no longer be art if it was made by multiple people as in the same way a band may contain any number of people

the obvious conclusion to draw is that the amount of people involved is irrelevant to begin with

that's our point!!!!!

Yes, you are correct. That's the point I've been trying to make all along. You seem to have changed your views halfway through which is causing confusion. So no, it wouldn't not be art if more people made it. But originally, you were of the opinion that it couldn't be art regardless.

Some people do, sure. If they do, they're probably decent, because if that many people are paying for their music, it's more than likely craftily done.

That's kind of not the point though

professional is a synonym for boring when it comes to music

It might not be the most exciting stuff music-theoretically, but again, that enough people like it to pay for it that it's at least a part-time, steady, significant percentage of someone's income over a period of years is almost guaranteed to imply that it's done with a minimum competency of craft, which is one of the major hurdles for something to be good.

When it comes to music that people aren't willing to pay for, there's a much higher chance that it's amateurish/without good craftsmanship AND it's also more likely to not be that interesting music-theoretically (so that it's boring on top of being poorly executed), because anyone who learns enough and works enough at their craft that their music is going to be interesting music-theoretically is also more likely to be able to play fairly well.

Do you want music as an art or as a trade like plumbing

Music is an art no matter how someone does it. Music is one of the arts.

Yes. That's been my entire point. I do consider it art because it takes an artistic mind to see the end result before the end result is made. It's in the same vein as I would consider writing in the same art style as painting or sculpting, which again, was my initial point in all of this.
