I am not sure what the diversion into the relative merit of pop music has to do with the OP, but (and perhaps against my better judgment), I would like to ask bdp24 for examples of what he means when he states:
****'The separation of Classical and Pop musics can be indefensible in purely artist terms. A fair amount of 20th Century Classical barely qualifies as music at all,****
Bdp24, you like Brian Wilson, we get it. Would you like to make a contribution a little closer to what the OP is about?
Schubert, that was a brilliantly subtle retort.
