Did anyone ever say or imply that choosing or playing a note is or should be done without emotion?
 
Emotion is the breath of life that inflates the note(s).
 
Nothing wrong with consciously picking the perfect note and then playing (or not playing) it, feeling your way forward - a fascinating trip - in a combination head/heart at unique proportions per individual. Player becomes observer and participant. Time seems to slow down. Ideas come through you which you can shape when you learn their secrets - an intellectual and emotional challenge worth the effort.
