Episode six of my in-progress book about the future of classical music is now online. It completes the introduction to the book—or, as I’ve started to call it, the improvisation of the introduction to the book. In it, you’ll find some pretty trenchant criticism of one last piece of classical music orthodoxy, along with—in a very different key—my own declaration of love for classical music.
Plus more, including the dedication of the book. It’s dedicated, in effect, to everybody reading this, to everyone who wants to see change in classical music, and most especially to everyone (like so many of my readers) who’ve helped me.
So thanks! Please feel free to post comments. I may take a brief hiatus after this episode, or I might not. I’ll post my decision here as soon as I’ve made it. If I don’t take a hiatus, the next episode will appear on May 15.
