"All manner of unacceptable behaviour, expressions of delight and facial grimaces; the stamping of the feet; the marking of the metre by unsightly body movement; the shaking and nodding of the head to and for; the snorting during a trill or a difficult passage: all of these and more cannot under any circumstances be condoned or excused, regardless of rank or gender. Neither should politeness or indulgence allow any consideration for the fairer sex. Music may be perceived solely through the ears, but there can be no excuse to offend the eyes. Many a musician who delights with his performance weakens an otherwise good impression when his caricature-like behaviour induces laughter, or when his apparent convulsions instill fear and horror in those present." Daniel Gottlob Türk's Clavierschule of 1789 |
