Well yes John as far as it goes.But, objectivity is an ideal approached only the more we allow different values and viewpoints into the picture.
Though it saddens me - a bit, a lot of my musical friends don't know much about classical music at all, and don't reach for it like I do. The converse is also true.
I think the rise of HIP etc is evidence that the core repertoire matters in a very shared and thus important way, there si alot more of an aesthetic debate now. I happen to think this has always come and gone, at least since art music that lasted, became possible. It is definitely something I want to see survive
Whether this started with solfa notation in Italy, or in the late 18th C, is not what I am getting at.
Chris Hogwood's old orchestra, the ACAM now, takes its name from a group started to play music less than 50 years old, back in the 18thC.Because I a share a love of R&R or the blues or whatever, or jazz with some of the classical guys, well, I can still converse with them.
