As a former jazz musician, I couldn't be quiet about your music comments. Believe it or not, perfection in music is expression. It's not about just playing the notes. The problem is than in a band, if everyone is playing their own way, it's not music, it's painful acoustical chaos. A talented band understands that their art is in reflecting the expression of the composer, arranger, and conductor. The talent is there, the expression is there, but all band members need to be on the same page. I loved playing jazz though, because I got to express my individual style during solos, especially improv.

Stepping off my soapbox now. Cheers!
