On Children's Concert Bands

As I was listening to my brother's last (last) band concert the other day, some interesting thoughts ran through my mind. I started comparing the different styles of art to different styles of music, and I found that a beginner band is most similar to Impressionism. Perhaps it isn't similar in that it captures time or that it plays with light. I am mainly comparing the visual style of Impressionism with the audio 'style' and 'quality' of the average beginner band. In Impressionism you get exactly what the name implies, an impression or a vague (more or less) understanding of what the artist is trying to portray. You don't get a sharp, clear image, but a close idea of the intended. I think that it's the same with beginner bands. You see, when a beginner band plays, you do not get a crisp, clean sound. Each player plays (unintentionally) a slight variation of the original score. Thats where we hear the squeaks, wrong notes, sharp notes, flat notes, notes that are 'almost there but not quite', air leaks, and the like. And so we end up hearing an inkling, an Impression, of the original. Perhaps it is a strange line of logic, but I thought it was interesting.
