It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Regardless, twleve-tone music did irreparable damage to many listeners. . .

. . . many of whom are still alive. It now appears as if it's been a musical dead end (thank goodness!). But if it's history, it's living history, and it's still performed and still having its injurious and alienating effects on the classical audience as a whole. Of course, I'm not denying that there's a fragment of the listening public (and the performing fraternity) that's "into" dodecaphony.

As for your question about modernism in general, the term just covers too many things to make a flat statement about it. I think the movement has contributed some effective and worthy products to society - especially in the areas of architecture and typography. (I love Helvetica!)
