Yes, I found that interesting as well.
Of course, it's my view that if it could be done
live, it preferably should be. (Live performance has something to offer that a
recording doesn't - like flexibility, nuance and individuality of
interpretation.)

Thanks for sharing this inspiring perspective. Let me add a thought
about listeners of music. Doesn't they play a big role in what they
hear? Well, I like listening to live performances, sometimes also to
those of DJs ;-)
Best regards,
Wolf
