As a non-musical person, I always sort of wondered what the point of a conductor was - I think your analogy can even extend to those who think they don't need God and play to their own beat (or something similar).BlueLotusJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12052067921458703271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4318906674611478902.post-13918718785070648672011-09-10T10:35:50.161-07:002011-09-10T10:35:50.161-07:00I like the thought of God as a conductor, especial...I like the thought of God as a conductor, especially when thinking beyond his ability to turn down the cacophony. A conductor is often the music director as well, and chooses the repertoire the ensemble will be playing. He interprets the piece, and conveys his interpretation to the entire ensemble. While each musician undoubtably has their own opinions on how the music should be played - and even on which music should be played - the decision of the conductor is what matters most of all. Frequently the conductor will not micro mange - there are certain decisions left to the musicians - but the conductor is always there guiding the direction of the music.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08771770235417006357noreply@blogger.com
