Congratulations on the "summary" of my opinions, even Bondi isn't capable of that much Enea :)

It's called reasonableness, Enea, reasonableness :)

It's not a matter of digestibility but of the very essence of the work as a complex structure made up of different components. Yet this forum is starting to feel like déjà-vu :)

Are you wrapping up your theses?? Huh?? I think you're making quite a mess, dear Enea :)

After this comment, as far as I'm concerned, "broad agreements" with George Bush are taking shape ;)

And I was hoping for a nice brawl like in the old days ;))

I mean? Anyone can quote whatever they want. To quote the work - perhaps inappropriately - just you will suffice. Here you go ;))

The same old story. Let’s distinguish between the formal and the subjective plane. If you perceive 20th-century music as noise, I have nothing to say about your perception. But formally, that’s not the case. I’m fine with value judgments (whose coordinates need to be framed), as long as they don’t stem from these factual judgments; that would be a perversion. As for the comparison between Sakamoto and Rossi, there’s an issue of homogeneity of forms. Differences, in order to be evaluated, require homogeneous reference parameters. Regarding Enea, who brings up an old discussion, I’ll say that I haven’t changed my mind about those theses. Bye :)

I also disagree with the idea that music ended with the romantics. There are many subsequent examples; some are cited by Josi, for instance in terms of symphonic works, after Brahms (who was nonetheless unexpectedly criticized during his lifetime) there was Mahler, for example. Certainly, music has evolved, but I believe that is normal. However, to classify it solely as "noise" seems a bit excessive and general to me. As for Ashkenazy’s performance, I am not familiar with it. Regarding Pollini, it seems legitimate to me that he chooses what to interpret based on his own will.

Dear Wanderer, I am not familiar with this concert, but the review I read with great pleasure is quite tempting, and like josi, I would love to revisit this beautiful page while listening. My compliments and regards to the gallery :)
