When the word 'ignorance' is used in its true sense i.e. 'not knowing' I totally agree.
How many times have we all heard someone say that they couldn't 'stand' football,jazz,classical,basketball,cricket,baseball etc.... when what they really mean is that they can't UNDERstand.!
Life is too short not to make use of arrangers which reduce the amount of work you have to practice.practice,practice even if you feel that perhaps you are cheating a little bit!
I know that my mother would have welcomed the use of a 'washing machine' instead of the boilers and tubs she had

I know that I get a lot more pleasure out of making music nowadays because the noises I make sound more professional than I am
