Musicological Mythbuster Linda Shaver-Gleason: The Exit Interview

MUSIC Posted: January 3, 2020 7:31 am

William Robin: “Linda tackled subjects from the purported ugliness of contemporary music to the contested idea of the ‘masterpiece’ to myths around Beethoven’s deafness to whether music is actually a universal language (spoiler alert: it’s not). … A little over two weeks ago, however, she posted a new entry: ‘I didn’t finish the book, and I’m not resuming the blog. Instead, I’m dying.’ … We spoke on the phone on Sunday. Here is an edited transcript of our conversation: an exit interview with one of my favorite public musicologists.” – National Sawdust Log
