Spoleto’s new boss: Let’s decolonise classical music
NewsMena Mark Harris, the new chief of SpoletoUSA, has some wonderfully fashionable guilt about how classical music treats the orient
He calls the lecture ‘A Horribly Discordant Noise: The Problem of Colonization in Classical Music’, which defines a problem of his own making. He goes on to pander to every curent wokeism. His guru is Edward Said and his thesis unoriginal.
Watch and wonder.
