I LIKE a lot of the so-called Celtic stuff. Some of it hits directly at my heart, in a good way, and I often use it for better moods, feelings, etc.Bob Jovi: can't stand Cage's stuff or Hindimith. I am of the frim belief, through my brother's research, writing, and music, that people who compose any music and present it tot he public have a moral obligation to be aware of the deletrious effect the vibrational tones can have on people. As my brother, a classical composer, wrote in one of his articles on this (well-researched and written long BEFORE the "new age" jumped on the bandwagon), "Music is a Planetary Modifierc". Even ancient civilizations were aware of this and mandated certain tunings each year in order to keep their contry, land etc. as "harmonious" as possible.
In my estimation Cage et al haven't a clue and no regard for what music can do. ***smile***
