Music is a mystery for people who play it, write it, listen to it, and write about it. The only thing I can really do when I try to say something about music is assume.
Everything Ellen McSweeney says is true, and the comments are interesting as well.

Did you notice how so many of the comments were used as a forum to promote their own work, men and women both. Marketing comes in many flavors, doesn't it? Even sober ones.
I am active as a composer, a violist, a violinist, a recorder player, and as a teacher. I have been keeping this space in the blogosphere alive with assumptions about music (and assorted other things) since 2005.

Yes. Absolutely. It is unfortunate that there are so few possibilities for actual discussions about music on line these days.
