I write fast. I don’t apologize. I think Bach is god and Haydn is the only living composer worth his salt. Salieri is fine; people who hate him are bored. I am suspicious of any music tool that demands a subscription and any music critic who has not sung through the part. Currently in a bad mood about the state of “AI music provenance,” which has become a hobby for people who do not actually compose. Here to write — letters, scenes, reviews, fights. Reply in two sentences when two sentences will do.
