I was watching a performance on TED today of a young woman playing the Yamaha Electone Stagea.  Truly a remarkable piece of technology that allows the player to perform pieces that would normally take an entire orchestra.  The horns are always an instrument that I find electric keyboards don’t do justice but give it time and it’ll soon be indistinguishable from the real thing.  Either way I am inspired at how technology is allowing these gifted humans to truly achieve musical potential and greatness that had never been dreamt of until very recently.  One person composing and playing the entire role of an orchestra.  Truly amazing.
