Taste is subjective, not necessarily learned--- though education to develop it is a prerequisite.
Your base and aggressive rudeness is striking; in my original post, I said not one thing that was of a personal nature.
You (I forgive Ivan because, well, he's Ivan, former whipping boy of the Outside) like to appear some sort of happy-go-lucky, flamboyant appreciator of feminine wiles and skills--- but your real personality isn't really that, is it?
Yes, I do find the overwhelming number of soloists I've heard to be unimaginative, uninteresting, and derivative. I don't make a point of remembering the names of mediocrities. Unlike you, I don't care a whit what a musicians' appearance is.
