Do we really know what "Live" music sounds like?


Do we really know what music sounds like?

Pure, live, non-amplified, unadulterated music.

Musicians do but most layman do not.

Interesting read by Roger Skoff.

Enjoy.

Kind of a bogus question. My music is different than yours so you can’t say music is only un-amplified. My music is all amplified and I have spent decades playing music in different bands, so I know what certain instruments should sound like.

99% of the concerts I attend are outside and quite a few of them you can hear the guitar thru the fender amp, others you hear everything from the PA system.

You bring up mics/pa systems, how about the room/hall/arena you hear the music in? That makes a huge contribution to the sound. 
I would take a concert in a great amphitheater that is amplified instead of an orchestra concert in a concrete building that is not built for good audio
