I agree maybe we should stick more toward music of the
clarinet sort, but the issue of what is music and what is not music
is an interesting topic. People have expressed themselves in many
ways and who has the right to say one way is better than another.
I was wondering if rap is wrong, than what do you consider some of
the expressionists like John Cage and Berg. Is this music? I'm
weary to call certain things music also, but what right is it to
anyone to say that you can express your self one way and not the other.
What other ideas do people have on this.
