Damn, they are selling this man’s dream for pennies on the dollar…
I just watched the YT video where he says the worst thing would be for his dream to be split to pieces and sold like that.
Unless that money was the difference between life and death, I wouldn’t be able to do this…
Complete BS!!!
Everyone can hone in their hearing in a specific sound. People that work with certain animals will have trained to recognise certain sounds they make that other people would be oblivious to. Does that mean that person is a “better listener” than I am to Beethoven’s 5th?!
I feel this is absolutely bonkers and ridiculous even to discuss. Music is made of such a wide range of “sounds/notes” produced by so many different instruments, that you could not “train” to master them all, even if you wanted to.
Yes, musicians will be trained to recognise a certain note, but that’s not because their ears hear better than yours or mine, it’s because they have created a memory (in the brain) of what each note sounds like, and when they hear it, they retrieve that memory.
Anyway, it’s all pointless… A good sound system, paired with a good recording, will allow for you and me to clearly listen and even isolate the instruments playing if we wish so, I occasionally do that for a few seconds, but in the end I’ll be reverting back to hearing the music as a whole because that’s what listening to music is…
