In the days when the self proclaimed liturgists were pushing poorly written hymns on the American church, I used to have a criteria if a hymn was good: If you heard the drunks singing it on the way home from the bar, it was a good hymn.
so can anyone sing along with this music if they were drunk? How about if they were sober?
But the elites who push bad art, bad architecture, and badly written books on you are giving this lady a Pulitzer prize.
And since she is a FilAm, it is being lauded in our local news papers.
here is a video from a few years ago about her music:
So why did she get the Pulitzer prize for this atonal music with no melody, and no rhythm, sort of like a poor imitation of Stravinski (i.e. not original) that no one except the elitist can or world listen to?
The explanation under the YOUTUBE video explains:
June 17, 2021 — Asia Society Triennial artist, composer, and percussionist Susie Ibarra's Fragility Etudes are studies into a world of sound that reflect humanity's interdependence and mutual existence alongside the natural environment. Ibarra’s dynamic score explores this interconnectedness through polyrhythms and concepts from the physics of glass.
Whatever.
but can anyone listen to it?
compare and contrast: the hot hits here:
Yes I know: I am a Philistine, and actually prefer Glen Miller to the Red hot chili peppers.
why beauty matters:
