Article on famous conductor's work
This is from an article on a famous conductor:
This part of the text is talking about how the conductor believed that the musical score (partitura) was just an analytical tool for the conductor that he believed destroyed the charm of what the music actually contained.
The context reads:
"El urmărea - cum singur spunea - "linia mare" ce conferă vibrație în interpretare."
This seems to be saying that:
"Consequently, as the conductor said himself "*high/big line??" which gave a "Vibration??" to the interpretation."
However, this does not sound very easy to make sense of anyway. I do not know what "high line" is and therefore cannot find the correct musical term to use.

"the big picture" which lends vibration to the performance
This could be a nice metonymy, too (music-picture).

the whole (great) phrase which gives vibration in interpretation
From the Romanian texts in the field, it seems to be referring to the conductor looking at the score as a whole, but in the same time paying attention to details. "Phrase" seems to be a common term in music, longer or shorter, the presented context shows the conductor looking at the whole picture, phrase of the musical part.

“Am ascultat cu reală plăcere partiturile puse în valoare printr-o abordare marcată de rigoare, implicare efectivă în demersul artistic, realizând o sonoritate omogenă, cu planuri expresive bine conturate, răspunzând prompt cerinţelor tânărului dirijor care… ştie ce vrea. Si aceasta se concretizează în siguranţa şi claritatea gestului, precizia atacurilor (ceea ce nu e puţin lucru), în „linia mare” a frazării, în rezolvarea secvenţelor lirice şi a celor de anvergură.” – Anca Florea, Actualitatea muzicală, octombrie 2010.

“Pentru a "îmblânzi" dimensiunile foarte extinse ale Simfoniei a VI-a de Vieru dirijorul a urmărit linia mare ce sub-ţine construcţia colosală (1 oră de muzică), fără să neglijeze detaliul semnificativ pentru atmosfera caracteristică fiecărei secţiuni, de exemplu întruchipările atât de originale ale variaţiunilor din partea I cu aluziile lor la lumea circului, la spiritul tango-ului, la un univers multicolor;”
