This research aims to deepen the knowledge of the factors involved and the processes that take place in musical performance, based on the conceptions and expert knowledge of five renowned classical music performers.
The methodological approach applied is qualitative and uses the semi-structured in-depth interview as a data collection technique.
The results obtained suggest that expressiveness, sound, creativity, and charisma are necessary qualities in a performer of excellence. It is concluded that the performer is a constructor of meaningful discourses who always seeks to establish emotional bonds with the audience.
