I didn't say it was either necessary or most common. It does depend on
the person doing the hearing. But I remember many people whose response
to singing or playing an instrument is, "Oh, I can't play like that," so
they won't even try.

Of course, this is compounded by the way at least the American education
used to put a lot of effort into discouraging students from singing or
playing music ...
