... might be considered "second rate", don't you think? At least when compared to certain others who appear to be considered as the true Giants of classical music composition.
You know, those striding Giants. Bloody born and bred in the 18th and 19th. To whom we refer to on an almost daily basis, and who I suppose will always be thought of as the true "first rate" composers of legend and lore. It would seem that there are precious few of those guys around but we gotta draw the line somewhere, don't we?
Or, could I be wrong? Maybe I don't need no stinkin' lines? I honestly can't decide what to do.
With such a shortage of "first rate" composers in this world, one might think that a fleaweight like Boulez would have dodged the issue.
So, I thought I'd ask you about this. Thanks for replying.
