He's been doing this for a long time..judging by the four worn away patches on the stool that match up with the four corners of his metronome,lovely little detail..plus,the darker wood in the centre where the metronome has protected it from the Suns rays.❣

Beautiful...the hands, the roof tops, faces all of it..great attention to detail in the making of.

[@robsou64]

The 'tempo rubato' is well illustrated in this short animation film... at the beginning, the old man is reliant on his metronome to keep the beat, simply because he is down and out of loving feelings in his heart, and his music is clearly lifeless. After his encounter with the stray dog, his heart opens up and his music becomes inspired by loving feelings and free. He is thrilled when he realizes that he does not actually need the metronome anymore! There is a great sense of freedom for a musician once he/she gets to that stage in his/her musical journey! The old man is now playing with 'rubato', a musical indication from the composer asking the musician to play slightly loosely with tempo so as to allow more feelings to show. That is the subtle but important distinction between a robot precision playing (=lifeless) and a more inspired and expressive playing that stirs the listener's soul. If you look further, you notice that at the end, before starting to play, he looks up the dog wagging tail to give him the beat, just like a metronome would! Then starts playing and the two of them are totally in-sync.. so lovely and free!

[@mandolinic]

Don't forget that Rubato also means "robbed" or "stolen" - the musician steals time from one note and gives it to another. But his metronome was also stolen...

For those of you who don't know, "Rubato" means stolen in italian

[@LivinCreative]

Thanks

[@robsou64]

Most importantly, it also refers to the italian musical term 'rubato' or 'tempo rubato' which ask for a musician to play slightly loosely with the tempo in order to emphasize certain key notes, to give the music a more human feeling. That is the huge difference between machine precision playing and humanly felt interpretation. The former is boring , while the latter stirs the soul.

[@robsou64]

The 'tempo rubato' is well illustrated in this short animation film... at the beginning, the old man is reliant on his metronome to keep the beat, simply because he is down and out of loving feelings in his heart, and his music is clearly lifeless. After his encounter with the stray dog, his heart opens up and his music become inspired with loving feelings, it sets him free and is thrilled when he realizes that he does not actually need a metronome anymore!
