  Thanks for tying the two pieces together. Nice quote from Gail: "a community needs a structure the same way an ensemble of musicians needs to understand the chord changes on which they are basing their improvisations".
  I've often thought of the correlation of abstraction to classic forms. Even Picasso learned to realistically draw before he abstracted to a few brushstrokes. That means that the disciplines, learnings, skills all needed to be really mastered before one can collapse it all down to something that might appear simple but actually is the product of years of training and a razor sharp plan. Thought about that expertise at the Clapton concert, too. Mastery and extreme focus: It's what distinguishes premeditated genius.
