We knew Spotify was a danger to music — gutting a fragile economy with its greed-based platform.
Now CEO Daniel Ek is chairman of Helsing, a deadly AI war machine he invested $700M in — money made off subscribers and artists.

Stravinsky defined a new time—literally—with his shifting sense of motion and modalities. This week, we celebrate his birthday. Even in this new century, we still hold his music as a door that leads us forward into a future of possibilities.

Why classical music has gone from 5% of the business to less than 1% over the past 50+ years has a lot to do with the receding tide of arts education. This is true even in Europe, and only countered by what we see in Asia. Read the article “Pianos Anyone?” Free - link in bio.

Happy 153 Scriabin!
Scriabin’s dream was to synthesize the musical and mystical into one divine experience. He transcended his craft with the power of chromaticism—a glimpse of his unique vision.
This remarkable performance by Alessandro Deljavan - rare and phenomenal—enjoy!!

People News: Beethoven Obsession
Bruckner was present when Beethoven's body was exhumed. When officials opened the coffin, Bruckner grabbed Beethoven's skull, held it, and kissed it. He was then forcibly removed.
Happy 254 - and still going strong!

In 1805, when Beethoven was writing the Appassionata, The Industrial Revolution was well underway in Great Britain and Germany, while Austria was making a treaty with Napoleon. This work is a lasting testament of that world as seen through the lens of Beethoven. Happy 254!
