Brenda found another great article in the Tape Op magazine (free to subscribe). This one is interviewing percussionist Evelyn Glennie

https://tapeop.com/interviews/154/evelyn-glennie/

who says, “If metronomes were addressed in a much more creative way right from the beginning of learning instruments, I think we’d have a different view of them. Especially if were to play behind or ahead of the beat. In that way they could become a creative tool, rather than something we feel hostage to….”

Suzy Shinn:
"If we want the huge, fancy, beautiful Capitol Studios Studio A to record vocals, because that’s the feeling we’re going for, sure! But if they want to sit behind me on the couch and use a SM7, that’s chill, too."
