Question Without an Answer


In the Tyee, Rafe Mair tackles the question that has tormented our family for almost a decade ("what is art?") and how the answer affects funding. The comments following the article are very thought-provoking.

Alex Ross discusses regional composers, particularly Sibelius, in the New Yorker. It is a very long article and I did not read it all, but this subject always makes me ponder who among us is being overlooked. I know groups like BAMA promote local composers. I am thus inspired to put their 2007-08 season on my calendar.
