Cookie Cutter Perforamances


I was keenly interested in the piece about the state of the classical music recording industry. Even more disturbing that the reductions in available music are the pressures against the baking industry, as revealed in the last sentence.

Perhaps consumers' rejection of cookie cutter performances will be the kick in the pants that forces performers to say something fresh (about the standard repertory)....

I agree. Not only consumers, but all musicians must reject all efforts to cut cookies out of the standard repertory. Oreo for us, or against us??!!!

Gotta go,
