Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book assesses the health of musical criticism in 19th-century England. The author argues that although England spent millions on music and musical talent during that period, the musical taste of the country didn't improve, and the literary and musical education of the English people made little progress. The author focuses on the weak state of music criticism as one reason for this lack of progress and considers critics to be responsible for educating the public about the musical experience. Sound criticism can inspire performers and ignite audience interest, while bad criticism can stifle artists' growth, disinterest audiences, and damage the progress of musical art. The author concludes that while musical criticism has the power to shape the future of music in England, the critics of the time failed to use that power effectively. This thought-provoking book is an insightful and useful read for music critics, musicians, and scholars interested in the evolution of musical criticism and the impact it has had on the development of music.
