What's the difference between the digitalia of
a computer and the workings of a pipe organ?
Seems to me there's a much stronger connection
between a player and a high-end electronic
keyboard than there is between a player and the
air coming out of pipe a hundred feet away.

And what about a Disklavier? It's an acoustic
piano that can be played by a computer.

You have a point, there. But, basically
the computer that creates sounds
from a digital keyboard is simply
mimicking a traditional instrument,
which then responds as that traditional
instrument does, more or less based
on the manufacturer's capability.

I interpreted the question more
broadly (or narrowly, depending how
you look at it).

Sorry to disagree with most people here. I think computers
already phased out musical instruments... now before flames
