I must take exception with your view. I have a passion for history and if=

you imerse yourself in a period and music, you can,with a little effort,
get
a good feeling for what it was like to live in that era, and approach the=

feeling that a music lover of the time had when listening to a piece. Of
course this is not necessary, and one can still get a novel and enjoyable=

appreciation of a work, even though it would not match that of a listener=

of
the time. You still are the better for it.
<

No argument. I have the same passion. But "approach", =

"good feeling" are not the same as hearing it for the
first time with ears and brain that have not heard music =

of the last two centuries. Of course,
we cannot know how different it would sound!
