City Journal has found a use for Baroque music.
What I like is the barbarians-at-the-gate alarmism, something City Journal does really well.

Well, it's good to know that baroque music has its uses even in this day and age. But the pleasure this fact brings me is somewhat offset by the disappointing realization that the author of the City Journal piece obviously has an IQ about 50 points higher than my own, thus rendering his prose extremely challenging for my limited mind to decipher.
ReplyDeleteSo pleased to see you re-starting your blog. Will visit often. (Now see what you've done? I'll be the annoying, smiling neighbor who keeps ringing the bell, asking to borrow a cup of sugar. Or, worse, more of an Alice Kravitz type...)
Thanks, Siren. Don't be a stranger.
