Entry: The Death of Music by the Spirit of Government Subsidies Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/the_death_of_music_from_the_spirit_of_government_subsidies#15844 Post contents: I couldn't disagree more with B's comment that a Requiem just won't cut it. In my opinion, Mozart's Requiem, especially his Dies Irae, as well as Faure's, are the most inspired and inspiring music ever written. I can listen to them every day and never tire of their magnificent musical adornment of the pinnacle of Catholic doctrine: life or death after our final judgment. If, instead of three books, I had to grab only 2 CDs before the world is destroyed, it'd be those two. And I wouldn't need three books, either. The Book of Kells would suffice. Sent at: 2008 07 20
