Talk:Music appreciation
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I thought music appreciation was a racket designed to sell concerts and recordings of a small subset of a small selection of composers (like Mozart, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky) while keeping other composers (like Kraus, Wilms, M. Haydn, Khrennikov) on the fringe, and even neglecting the less marketable output of the 'great' composers handpicked by marketing. Anton Mravcek 16:26, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
- It also involves mythologizing the famous composers' lives. It's much easier to tell the story of Beethoven tearing up the title page of the Eroica Symphony than to explore the actual genesis of the work. Volunteer Sibelius Salesman 19:35, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
This is definately not a "wikified" article. At the end the writer even refers to himself. Someone should clean this up, I would but am too lazy. --68.97.2.180 08:53, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
Just read the article again....man that's cheesy. I'm going to go ahead and delete everything after the first sentence. --68.97.2.180 08:54, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
