My point , Oliver, was that Bach or Raphael are great art, but have to be seen as great in the context of either Renaissance or Germany in the mid 18th Century.
The same conditions won't and can't be repeated . We don't relate to music or visual art in the same way: I could have said consume, but did'nt want to for obviuos reasons.
I am in awe and astounded by Bach and Beethoven as much as I am of Avebury or English medieval church carvings . All are great art.
Meanhile back to Beth.
My daughters made me proud when, at Latitude, they got on stage with her. They are 11 and 14 btw.
