01 The Langu?age of Music?A paint?er hangs? his or her finis?hed pictu?re on a wall, and every?one can see it. A compo?ser write?s a work, but no one can hear it until? it is perfo?rmed. Profe?ssion?al singe?rs and playe?rs have great? respo?nsibi?litie?s, for the compo?ser is utter?ly depen?dent on them. A stude?nt of music? needs? as long and as arduo?us a train?ing to becom?e a perfo?rmer as a medic?al stude?nt needs? to becom?e a docto?r. Most train?ing is conce?rned with techn?ique, for music?ians have to have the muscu?lar profi?cienc?y of an athle?te or a balle?t dance?r. Singe?rs pract?ice breat?hing every? day, as their? vocal? chord?s would? be inade?quate? witho?ut contr?olled? muscu?lar suppo?rt. Strin?g playe?rs pract?ice movin?g the finge?rs of the left hand up and down, while? drawi?ng the bow to and fro with the right? arm -- two entir?ely diffe?rent movem?ents.Singe?rs and instr?ument?alist?s have to be able to get every? note perfe?ctly in tune. Piani?sts are spare?d this parti?cular? anxie?ty, for the notes? are alrea?dy there?, waiti?ng for them, and it is the piano? tuner?s respo?nsibi?lity to tune the instr?ument? for them. But they have their? own diffi?culti?es: the hamme?rs that hit the strin?gs have to be coaxe?d not to sound? like percu?ssion?, and each overl?appin?g tone has to sound? clear?.This probl?em of getti?ng clear? textu?re is one that confr?onts stude?nt condu?ctors?: they have to learn? to know every? note of the music? and how it shoul?d sound?, and they have to aim at contr?ollin?g these? sound?s with fanat?ical but selfl?ess autho?rity.Techn?ique is of no use unles?s it is combi?ned with music?al knowl?edge and under?stand?ing. Great? artis?ts are those? who are so thoro?ughly? at home in the langu?age of music? that they can enjoy? perfo?rming? works? writt?en in any centu?ry.01 音乐的语言?画家将已完?成的作品挂?在墙上，每个人都可?以观赏到。 作曲家写完?了一部作品?，得由 演奏者将其?演奏出来，其他人才能?得以欣赏。因为作曲家?是如此完全?地依赖于职?业歌手和职? 业演奏者，所以职业歌?手和职业演?奏者肩
