A performance, unexpectedly and amazingly brilliant or not, is very unlikely to capture every person in the audience and send them into throes of omg blissful rapture!!1! Even in a music academy, where the audience knows how to listen. Boo. (Unless it's a big name performing outstandingly well, with everyone in the audience a fan who's come to listen especially to him/her.)
Chiaki and Milch-sensei (sorry XD) couldn't really have paid such close attention to each other in a peak-point of the song. One or both would have messed up. Inevitably. Generally trying to push moments of (inter)personal revelation in the middle of very trying and concentration-demanding tasks is a bad idea. I know it was only for like ten seconds, but it was for ten seconds too long.
But rushing to play piano afterwards was a dead-on reaction from Nodame. Totally and completely.
All in all, this show both frustrates and delights me. Thankfully, the frustration usually doesn't stem from negative (? -ish) things such as pointed out in this post, but from the fact the pieces are almost always cut short. It's good music, damn it, I want to hear it in full! And without commentary, but that's not possible. Because then it would be just animated classical CD's with no story at all. :D
