Hello people,
I want to know your opinions on this particular subject that to me is just as important (if not more) as technique and control of the instrument.
So what are these about? Are they related? How important is our own taste in this process?

Would you go as far as saying that it is a process of discovering and really understanding, with depth and details, what is it that you really like?

I believe skill (technical ability/development) is always trying to catch up with taste, it will always be a bit behind, and that both always keep improving. But how far behind your skill is from your taste becomes exponentially less the farther along you become on the learning curve.
I wish I could just present a little graph of that hehe. That is the IDEAL, interpolated kind of visual (obviously, throw in real-time human and lifestyle dynamics and you have a very messy chaotic graph)
Another way to put it is, in order to improve at your craft, your taste has to keep improving so you don't get your skill up to that, realize you can do everything you want, and say "oh look I'm done!" (admittedly I have done this on other instruments, and the result is still fine, but I can assure you, at that point, I have stopped improving!) But you also don't want the opposite. If your skill is not improving by itself because you lack the tools to set it forth, improving your taste will not make you progress faster.
Another way to look at it: taste is the incentive/motivation, skill is having the tools, both together is the result.
Am I still speaking english I hope?
