Classical music and the end of civilization
Wow! This book review gives a bit of food for thought…
Have you ever wondered about how classical music and its influence seem to be slipping, a bit more every year, as the audience grays even more and the younger folks just don’t seem to be showing up, regardless of the quality?
This essay touches upon some interesting and intriguing historical reasons why that might be the case… Have a look; you’ll be surprised, I think, by the reasons this writer puts forth.
Not sure I agree, necessarily… What do you think?
