Modern Music: A Popular Guide to Greater Musical Enjoyment by John Tasker Howard
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
A quick brisk read in three acts:
I: "Modern" is a delusion of aspect. Every articulate observer sans time machine is at the end of a chain of events reaching back to antiquity.
II: DIssonance is the eventual object in the evolution of composers' imaginations and listeners' ears.
III: Enjoy and explore experimental and challenging music.
