Who Needs Classical Music?: Cultural Choice and Musical Values
Johnson, Julian (Lecturer in Music, Lecturer in Music, Oxford University)
'Who Needs Classical Music?' considers the value of classical music in contemporary society, arguing that it remains distinctive because it works in different ways to the other music that surrounds us. Challenging assumptions about the relativism of cultural judgements, the book aims to restore some types of music to the status of aesthetic text.
