Introduction to classical music #10: the music and the institution.

In this last entry for this blog, I wanted to talk to you about the paradox that exists between classical music and the institution that supports it.

But a man named Greg Sandow is devoting a lot of time and effort on this topic, and he is currently publish an online book-in-progress that is, so far, the best thing I've ever red on the subject.

So I invite you to jump to M. Sandow's blog from now on, hoping that this blog has successfully made you more curious about classical music and, mostly, I hope that you now understand that classical music is not a social class thing, but that it is above all a matter of taste...

Thank you!
