On How Are We To Listen To Contemporary Classical Music?

I thought the biggest obstacle (not mentioned here) was Kahane's singing – maybe he's not the best performer of his own work. If he had conducted on banjo and bass as PART of the orchestra and hired a real singer (perhaps different singers and voice types for added character, given the many text sources), instead of effectively using Orpheus as his backup band, it would have been less indulgent and more accessible (in my opinion! clearly).

Dying. I don't even think there was a rec in here beyond somehow attending the Purple Rain tour retroactively.
