Do television/film portrayals of music/musicians piss anyone else off?

6. Depends on the musician, saras.

A truly disciplined musician expresses himself through disciplined performance or composition of music. The discipline has to be deeply ingrained.

For example, Miles Davis was both a disciplined musician and an expressive musician in most of the performances that are recorded. He probably had less disciplined moments -- moments in which he was simply messing around, searching for his music, for his muse. But for the most part his music is disciplined, shall I say, focused on the music and not on self-indulgence. That is why his music was/is so loved by many musicians.

The disciplined music is for the public. But to be able to play the disciplined music, you need to explore the expressive moments too. That's my opinion.

I also think that if you start to play instruments at a very young age, the discipline comes very naturally. You just don't know any other way to be. So the expression and discipline merge more easily. That was probably true for example for Mozart.
