        !            15: Technique achieves the goal of interpretation when:

        !            18: <li>the tone is beautiful</li>
        !            19: <li>the intonation is accurate</li>
        !            20: <li>the rhythm is under precise control</li>
        !            21: </ul>
        !            22: <p>
        !            23: Technique is grounded in absolute values.  Technical control
        !            24: must be total and knowledge of the music must be complete in
        !            25: terms of formal and harmonic structure.
        !            26: </p>
        !            27: <p>
        !            28: Interpretation comes from relative values.  The taste, style, and
        !            29: fashion of the performing individual must be clearly expressed.
        !            30: </p>
        !            31: <p>
        !            32: Technique is improved through <i>correlation</i>.  That is to say, the
        !            33: player must relate his mind's conception to his muscular response.
        !            34: This is best done by presenting the mind with problems that "proceed
        !            35: from the simple to the ever more complex".
        !            36: </p>
        !            37: <p>
        !            38: Interpretation is an activity whereby the musician freely adjusts his
        !            39: playing based on inspiration.  While the violinist must make
        !            40: technical allowances for essential acoustical "vowels" and "consonants",
        !            41: the ultimate success of interpretation is that it directly expresses
        !            42: emotion from the performer to the audience listener.
