“In the 19th cen­tury, music was seen as a highly val­ued trea­sure with fun­da­men­tal and near-mystical pow­ers of human com­mu­ni­ca­tion,” North told the BBC. No more: “The degree of acces­si­bil­ity and choice has arguably led to a rather pas­sive atti­tude towards music heard in every­day life.

The acces­si­bil­ity of music has meant that it is taken for granted and does not require a deep emo­tional com­mit­ment once asso­ci­ated with music appreciation.“

I know i’m old fash­ioned, but I didn’t know I was a throw­back to the bloody 19th century.
