My son is an interesting example of this, I can play all the best guitar music on earth via the speakers, but when I physically get the guitar out and strum it, he sits up like he has just seen god, and is total awe of the sounds of it, the feel of the guitar and the site of it. It's like nothing else can compare. Even if he is hysterically crying, the physical isntrument and the sound of it just makes him calm right down.
I wonder if something is lost in the recording process that just cannot be replicated? A live instrument is something that you can actually feel the sound of IMO, I've never felt the same with recorded music even though I of course enjoy it.
I wonder if when we get older we just get kind of "bored" (sadly) and it doesn't mean as much to us as it probably should.
I'm speculating that one would have more mirror neuron activation watching a person perform live, compared to listening to a recording or watching a video. Thus the missing component that makes live performance special.
