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#16212 Post contents: Classical music was self-destructing long before 1945. Bartok, Webern, Schoenberg, Varese, Hindemith, Scriabin, all were cranking out "masterpieces" of atonality long before. As in art and architecture, the repudiation of traditional beauty had little to do with state subsidies and a great deal to do with avant-garde fashion. Sent at: 2008 07 24
