That's right, GfS.   I'm a person of unrefined taste, for whom all the Beethoven, Brahms and Tchaikovsky symphonies, a huge number of the Mozart symphonies, Dvorak's 8th and 9th, most of the Mozart piano concertos, all the Beethoven piano concertos, most Schubert symphonies, Bruch Scottish Fantasy, Bruch violin concerto, most Mendelssohn symphonies, all the Mozart violin concertos, Tallis, Byrd, Josquin, di Lasso-- and a long, long list of other classical pieces-- are old friends.   Maybe you're refined enough to like Webern, Hindemith etc. Good for you. I don't require my music to be intellectually challenging, nor to reflect the chaos and despair of modern life.

I do like it to be made by humans, not machines.

As I noted earlier, somebody who requires a studio to "create" is no musician. That seems to knock out a lot of commercial rap--and a lot of current pop.

Among other things, I think it's too bad that for current Irish music a lot of people seem compelled to create a fake 'ethereal" atmosphere with the aid of a studio or electronic 'enhancements'. And drum machines are an abomination--especially for anybody with a pretense to be doing "folk" music.
