The good and the beautiful are self-evident.
Music is recognized according to culturally defined terms, then personal experience engenders preferences, whether narrow and biased or broad and general.
The skeptical mind, capable of considering the traditional and historical with incisive acumen, rarely seeks to question the contemporary, whether its representations are abstruse or dull and mundane.
And thus the same patterns continue to repeat, until vision, listening, and being progress beyond what is merely given to be common understanding.
The artist cannot presume, but must take action.
