From Perotin to Prokofiev (and beyond), performed by Caruso to Khatia, it's all here.

"Your problem is simple reading comprehension" etc, etc

"Why, next to you, we're all 'inexperienced!' "
Certainly, YOU are at least - it's obvious from your posts! And do I detect a bit of envy on your part at this situation? ;-)

"Of course, you do realize that all listeners of recorded material are nothing but followers?"
Huh? Followers of what? Followers of those "literary" critics you like?

". . . your personality does not afford you the courtesy to discuss without innuendos, ad hominem, and reducio ad absurdum. Unfortunately, when a conversation becomes such, one is forced to respond in kind."
Forced! Forced, I say! (BTW, it's reductio ad absurdum - not reducio ad absurdum - and the meaning is, " [a] form of argument that attempts to establish a claim by showing that the opposite scenario would lead to absurdity or contradiction". Now that you know what it is, maybe you can use the term properly? ;-)

No, the fact is that I'm dealing with someone not very knowledgeable, who thinks he knows more than he does but who envies people who actually do know more, and who harbors great anger and resentment about this. He attempts to compensate for this by bringing in social issues out of left field and arguing on that basis, rather than on his own musical knowledge. Yes - I think we have our psychological profile! ;-)
