Creativity in Classical Music: Does the Performer Have a Say?

As a classically-trained pianist who attempts to accurately follow other composers' written scores as well as being a composer who has distributed detailed written scores to other performers and hoped for meticulous accuracy, I am fascinated by this dance that exists only in classical music of the composer versus the performer. There's a belief that the composer is king and the written score is law. However, few performers want to just be robots who only play what they are told. This episode looks at the history of classical music through the evolution of composer/performer expectations, how to embrace being a performer in this world, and how a composer should adapt their mindset to one of partnership.
