I think that's what he's saying. Notes on paper isn't music any more than lines on paper is a building. Blueprints don't do shit unless someone actually builds your buildings. I could design the most elaborate, amazing building (also elaborately impractical) on paper, but that doesn't mean I'm a good architect.
