RE: Curating Music History: Instrumental Music from L'Orfeo (Monteverdi)
I think one of my favourite things about older music is how it so successfully tells a story all on its own :) Modern music lacks that quality for the most part...
Music, words and everything were all much more closely intertwined... these days, music is either subservient to other things (film music.... or songs), or is just pure sound for sound's sake (contemporary "Classical" music).
