Caution!: PUI ALERT!
Interesting Question from the (semi?)-professional musician.
I take 'backdrop' to equate to the theatrical version here.
Geilgud or Larry, dear, dear Larry could soliloquy the Bard equally as powerfully in front of a black screen or projected footage of muck-spreading and I'd still be as enthralled.
Get to the point ya fat, hairless git! Okay, okay...
The quality of the product is the key. GREAT golf hole/GREAT performance not necessarily affected by the 'context'. Possibly enhanced, occasionally weakened, but the performance is the thing.
The more weak-minded are perhaps more affected by surroundings. The more imaginative more suggestible by the quality of the performance, whether it's at the Met, the Globe, the primary school nativity play or Singstar on the PS3.
Yea, verily, I prithee 'tis truth beyond the ken of such simple minds...
FBD.
