You got me on that. Down I go. Perhaps I should have used the terms 'earlier
methods' and 'modern methods' rather than 'primitive's and 'improved'. The
latter set of terms was what came to mind at the time. The people old man
Bach employed then, had the same makeup that people today have. Evolution
hasn't changed the human species in the time span of 50 or 60 years. The
only difference is the tools and technology they had then as opposed to
what's available today. Whatever the case, never did I imply that earlier
craftspersons were 'primitive' in the terms you mentioned below. While I
greatly appreciate the modern marvels today where I benefit from computers,
CD players and the like, I also greatly appreciate the 'earlier methods'
when craftspersons didn't have computers to aid in their work and had to
rely more on what nature provided.
