Why Classical Music Still Matters (Simpson Book in the Humanities)
Lawrence Kramer
I was recently astounded to hear that some malls have been piping in classical music to keep kids from congregating; it seems most modern kids literally "can't stand" classical music. I picked up this little book to see if it might quickly give shape to the reasons I have for my long love affair with classical music. Alas, if I were looking for philosophy and aesthetics, I would have given it a very careful read; but my interest here was not academic, and I wanted a quck answer, which I did not easily find. Well, maybe I did receive my quick answer, in a backhand sort of way. Classical music takes mental effort, concentration, and emotional availablility. I brought none of these qualities to the book as I do bring them to my classical listening.
