I’m a little late in linking to this, as the discussion seems to have petered out, at least for the moment, but I thought I’d mention it for those (if any) who might read this blog but not Touchstone’s. It’s a post by Anthony Esolen responding to an article on the question of whether it’s possible for our culture to produce a great composer. Read it here. (I assume the Rob G who comments very wisely in it is the Rob Grano who comments here. Right, Rob?)
