maddening
Maddeningly heavy on tonal reactionism. This is the 21st century, not the 18th nor 19th. & no, music is neither to express nor evoke emptions, none of the tonal metaphysics.
Wonderful music and program
Great podcast about new classical music and women composers. Breathtakingly beautiful music and entertaining presentation. Listen to this!
