A story is told by there (I read it in a bulletin of Radio Universidad, San Luis Potosi) narrates that on one occasion a very famous orchestra, I think Leonard Bernstein, lent the baton to a music lover who had attended a concert. She left him conduct the orchestra in a single small room. In the end, the music lover director told something like "oh, that moving the wand is very simple." To which the director replied, "but please do not tell anyone." The anecdote illustrates the image formed many people about music. When you listen and begin to whistle, seems an easy thing. When we see the performers of the orchestra, such is the grace and agility with which they play their instruments, it seems easy. The truth, who has been involved in this fiddling is not as simple as that. And it gets harder as it develops.
