From Bach to Sex Pistols? You bet and all points between, your knowledge knows no bounds
For better or worse, one 'goal' of the Sex Pistols was to demystify music and knock the big rock stars of the time, down a peg or two. Like Joey Ramon said- Learn 3 chords and start a band. For better or worse I say, because it inspired kids everywhere to pick up a guitar.(I'd say that's the better part). For worse- maybe some sub par bands. So what? No one says we must listen to them all. Like you say about Opera- better to dress comfortably and behave appropriately than the reverse. You changed my opinion on that so I have now overcome my aversion to the attire challenged folks here in SoCal. Plus we need audiences to keep the art form alive (as you also stated in your lecture and I know first hand). And we need young people to bravely pick up their instruments of choice without fear. Mistakes are ok and Beethovens are few and far between. That doesn't mean we cannot aspire to greatness, but to also 'enjoy the ride.' I play alternative rock and have done so for over 40 years. Sadly we don't all get to be rick stars- living or otherwise. I work for an Opera Box Office in LA (a very good one in fact) and I love and listen to both and many other music forms. Your lectures have been a god send. You've helped reinvigorate my own personal music journey.
I thank you Professor!
Sincerely,
JSelway
