of course not,

This composer expends an enormous amount of time and energy- and, usually, considerable money- on the creation of a commodity which has little, no, or negative commodity value. He is, in essence, a "vanity" composer. The general public is largely unaware of and uninterested in his music. The majority of performers shun it and resent it. Consequently, the music is little performed, and then primarily at poorly attended concerts before an audience consisting in the main of fellow 'professionals'. At best, the music would appear to be for, of, and by specialists.

Towards this condition of musical and societal "isolation," a variety of attitudes has been expressed, usually with the purpose of assigning blame, often to the music itself, occasionally to critics or performers, and very occasionally to the public. But to assign blame is to imply that this isolation is unnecessary and undesirable. It is my contention that, on the contrary, this condition is not only inevitable, but potentially advantageous for the composer and his music. From my point of view,

Answer:

no

Explanation:

his article might have been entitled "The Composer as Specialist" or, alternatively, and perhaps less contentiously, "The Composer as Anachronism." For I am concerned with stating an attitude towards the indisputable facts of the status and condition of the composer of what we will, for the moment, designate as "serious," "advanced," contemporary music. This composer expends an enormous amount of time and energy- and, usually, considerable money- on the creation of a commodity which has little, no, or negative commodity value. He is, in essence, a "vanity" composer. The general public is largely unaware of and uninterested in his music. The majority of performers shun it and resent it. Consequently, the music is little performed, and then primarily at poorly attended concerts before an audience consisting in the main of fellow 'professionals'.

But to assign blame is to imply that this isolation is unnecessary and undesirable.

From my point of view, the composer would do well to consider means of realizing, consolidating, and extending the advantages.

Discuss the influence of John Lennon's post-Beatles music and the impact of his death on popular musicians who followed. Please
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

The Beatles are regarded to be the greatest ever rock band in the history of music.  The album, " Abbey Road", is often cited among the all time greatest albums. The group comprised of John Lennon, the lead vocalist, Sir Paul McCartney, vocalist and guitarist, Ringo Starr, drums and percussion and George Harrison as bass guitarist. Some of their tracks such as Yesterday, Imagine, Something and  Revolution are immortal.

The band enjoyed unprecedented and unparalleled success and Lennon became a prominent public figure, for his unconventional ways, statements, public influence and fashion sense. It is rumored that, Lennon's affair and subsequently marriage to Uno was the prime reason which gave rise to tension among band members, most prominently creating a rift between him and McCartney.

Post the fallout, Lennon went solo and continued winning success and accolades until 1980, when he was assassinated. The event was mourned by public to such a magnitude that some could not bear the news and gave up their lives, whereas it left the music industry devastated. Major events were interrupted upon the knowledge of his death.

The Beatles inspired an entire generation of musicians. U2 cite them as one of their greatest inspirations besides Elvis Presley. Oasis impersonated The Beatles as a mark of respect, with Noel Gallagher sporting same hairstyle and donning Lennon's round sunglasses as a tribute to him in "Don't Look Back In Anger" video. The Verve's Richard Ashcroft cites The Beatles as his musical inspiration.

Many renowned musicians went on to claim that the Beatles were their sole inspiration behind taking up music as a profession.
