I always was under observation that musicians use different techniques - they do not listen played back music but they rather register the pointers to keys and intervals and then they reconstruct in their consciousness the fabric of the music in accordance with their perception.

I agree with this. Many times when I listen, I don't hear what is played, rather how I thought it should have been, or I compare to how I would have played it. Especially when I read the score when listening, at least half of what I hear is my "imagination". Some of my best playback is when the stereo is OFF!

This does leave a lot of room for creative playback.........
