A musical crisis of faith - well timed for Easter!
So the Mendelssohn Singers - the choir I'm in - is performing Arvo Part's PASSIO this Friday night and I know I should be excited about it. After all, its a rarely performed piece written by a composer who is seen as a pioneer of his genre - "mystical or sacred minimalism". You want to know the truth?
It frankly bores the snot out of me.
I fear that this is a clear indication that my post secondary education in music was all for not...it apparently didn't lead to a more refined taste in music. Oh and while I'm at it I should also confess that I hate most slow movements and can't really sit through anything written by Bach.
I think there might really be something wrong with me...
