Classical Music Month Finale
It’s inevitable. At some point, I get asked this question… Who is your favorite composer? My answer might sound a bit glib, but it’s accurate. Me. Because if I don’t like what I’m writing, why am I doing this in the first place? The reality, of course, is that I don’t have any favorite composers. There are works that move me, works I appreciate for the skill and care taken in their creation (or performance), and there is music that touches me today, but didn’t yesterday – and might not tomorrow, depending on what’s happening in my life at the moment.
