You remember that - the article that discussed Rachmaninoff's mediocre, trite, and inconsequential music, and predicted that his music would quickly fall by the wayside. After all, it shared the same kind of vulgarity with Hollywood movie music. True connoisseurs would never lower their standards to accept music like Rachmaninoff's.
Are you still waiting for this to happen? ;-)
