Though not very good (but not very bad), I've been dabbling in Classical
Guitar (lots of Bach there!) for many years. I frequently practice with
background noise, whether TV or white noise like washing machine, dryer,
etc. I don't have anyone to do the vaccuuming while I play! I find the
physical results often more pleasing this way, though of course one can't
necessarily hear very much. What I mean by that is I think what GG meant:
I concentrate so hard on hearing that I don't waste any concentration on
the physical (centipedal) aspects of playing.
So I'm suggesting either you're not bats, or we both are.
