FROM TODAY'S ARTSJOURNAL BLOGS
America’s Forbidden Composer 

“Arthur Farwell is probably the most neglected composer in our history.” This assessment, by the late composer/critic A. Walter Kramer in 1973, rings ever louder today; Farwell has been deemed untouchable. Hounded by the watchdogs of “cultural appropriation,” he has fallen prey to dictates of political rectitude. – Joseph Horowitz



Not Such A Little List 

Sir Jonathan Miller’s direction of The Mikado — his staging, dating all the way back to 1986, is now back — is the source of the treasure-hoard that has allowed English National Opera’s survival for most of my opera-going life. – Paul Levy



At 92, Lee Konitz Has A New Album 

The alto saxophonist has long found that the nine-piece-ensemble format stimulates his creativity, and over the years, he has made several nonet albums. – Doug Ramsey



The twenty-five record albums that changed my life (15) 

My father had no knowledge of or interest in classical music himself, but he brought home a record for me whenever he passed through Memphis on business. This is the one I remember best. – Terry Teachout
