on the difference between technique and expression

technique is knowing how to find the problem in your own material and on what level to begin to alter it for the better - expression - to me- is the intuition that allows you to find the best starting point or entry point into a problem.

in pianists technique is how to play intervals like tenths fast without putting your elbow in your eye and expression is faking sex with the instrument
