Just curious why you say that. I've never read him, and wasn't even aware of him until reading his obituary this morning, but his basic tenets as I understand them--that no music can be reduced simply to the notes, and that making music speak to the audience for whom it is played is more important than recreating the music as it would have been performed for the audience of its time ("historically informed performance")--are sound enough.

Not saying Fedex isn't better than USPS, just saying that Fedex tracking has shown me at one time or another that packages are going the wrong direction before they go the right direction. I have always assumed there was a rational reason. (And still do.) I hope someday to see a package go from Natchez to Mobile.
