[Dixielandjazz] Solos

[Robert Ringwald]

Musicians hear music and solos differently than non-musicians.  

A musician will hear a solo and recognize the beautiful melodic lines, choice of notes and feeling that a good musician puts into it.  

Unfortunately often, a non-musician will like a solo because the musician played a lot of notes, played a lot of high notes, looked as if he was really putting something into it, because he smiled a lot  or just because they like the musician personally.
