In Reply to: the meaning of "metronome" posted by Hiram Diaz on February 12, 2002 at 23:49:45:
I am sometimes complimented for my "time", but I know that it is not good. That's why I use a metronome whenever I practice. The exception being the last few run-throughs of some sort of concerto, solo, etc., as I know there will be no metronome onstage.
Good time? Good pitch? whatever.
(Both of these senses are constant recalibrations, unless one is incredibly silly about overestimating their cababilities.)
