Teachout, Terry
Commentary, October 2007, v124, #3, pp56-59
Well-known music and drama critic Terry Teachout reviews a recent book by Alex Ross, the music critic of the New Yorker, about the history of classical music in the 21st century. In his new book "The Rest is Noise: Listening to the 20th Century," Ross points out, that classical music "is reaching far larger audiences than it has at any time in history," and that the rise of the new digital media offers classical musicians a new way to reach out to "subcultures and niche markets." Terry Teachout is Commentary’s regular music critic and the drama critic of the Wall Street Journal.
