And the context was:
"That's why people who see music of prior centuries as a pinnacle of absolute perfection are doomed to disappointment in anything written today. It will either be an inevitably imperfect copy or -- even more disappointing --"
So at a certain critical point in his life, Rochberg decided he would write in Beethoven's and Mahler's styles - and he did so because he genuinely felt that those styles were best suited to what he had to express (or so he said). And yet you don't seem to be disappointed with Rochberg?
