Oh there are worse:

Nikolai Kapustin wrote strictly notated pieces, often very difficult, that are made to sound like jazz.

I know medieval music isn't classical per se but fuck it, this is almost transcendent.

I don't find what the article says especially ruinous. Classical-pop crossover is an embarrassing fad but cannot be blamed on zoomers. Using classical music as mood management (or for "functional" rather than "artistic" purposes) is not bad at all.

I think people are so desperate to escape the incessant politicization of everything that even the woke will seize on something that is nearly impossible to politicize.

Until they do, of course.

Wagner's so good that even Jews have to like him.

Daniel Barenboim did all of Wagner's mature operas (or Gesamtkunstwerk in Wagner's term) and the recordings are quite rightly acclaimed -- but then so are those by Christian Thielemann, who reportedly referred to Barenboim as "that jew".

Georg Solti's recordings of Wagner are the best that exist and he was a Hungarian Jew IIRC.

Of course the jew cheaped out and didnt hire a conductor or good muscians

I mean he's one of many German idols that inspired Jews themselves
