“I would like everyone on earth to experience that feeling.”

They can whenever they choose to do so.

All that great music going back a thousand years...the bulk of that human catalog...is available today on CD...and probably Pandora and other streaming services.

Celebrate that.

Art is so poorly taught in this country.

My classmates were taught by our society that they must believe what the modern media told them was art.

I remember a college English professor telling me that,

“All art must support the revolution.”

I asked him about Bach and Monet and Robert Frost.

“That is not art. All art must support the revolution.”

What a cruel and inhuman thing to teach students.

Forty years ago, I was probably the only person in my county who had any recording of music by Gesualdo. Today, push the right button and you can listen to practically everything he ever wrote, along with all the other late Renaissance chromatic madrigalists. The problem is that you have to know what to look for, and that takes an education that isn't Marxist anti-European indoctrination.
