@Ninjasticks Actually, once you've gotten to the point where you truly have control over your instrument, it's okay to move. Also, when you're in a small ensemble with no conductor, it's a good idea to move because it helps establish pulse among the ensemble. Dr. Bowman told me that. That's right. Dr. freakin' Bowman.
Because movement interferes with your ability to produce a quality sound. It is a bad habit to get into and is detrimental to learning proper posture which will ultimately lead to producing great sound easiest. Also, it is a distraction.
why would you ask for less movement when performing such a beautiful piece? Music and dance are one in the same. I take it you don't much enjoy opera or theater
@astronomicat Yeah, I got a 2 :P

@ninjasticks do you have any idea who you are talking about? David Taylor gets to move as much as he damn well pleases.
