Mail from the professor<\/h3>\n

\nHello–I’ve had a couple of requests for clarification of the assignment.
\nThis is what I’m thinking: wherever you may go from Wesleyan, you’ll be
\ndealing with musicologists and music theorists who have strong opinions
\nabout composers. Larry Kramer is very smart, well informed, very well
\nknown and respected, and a fine writer, and he and the others you’ll be
\nreading have points to make about composition and composers. So the
\nidea is to have you take them on, one way or another, as you see fit, but
\nwith cogent arguments and well-chosen examples. Of course, you may
\nthink they’re fine observers and can just extend their thinking with your
\nown experience. But even though it might look like one short article for a
\nwhole week’s work, take your time with the assignment and don’t just toss
\nsomething off Tuesday night. If you get interested in Kramer, check out his
\nother books. I almost gave you his cultural studies reading of Ravel’s
\n“Daphnis and Chloe,” which is quite entertaining, but he’s really a
\nnineteenth-century specialist (which might show).\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
