I saw her once back in the 70's and the alarm went off. It seems your
very good friend sorta' fell in love with her and he realized what was
going down . . . left the country! :-)
Here I was going to ask you to define "Good Taste" in music, something
I've been trying to define for a friend, and you bring this up! Just
curious, I studied with a refined harpsichordist at one time. She
stressed "good taste" and refered to F. Couprin's "Art de Toucher le
Clavecin" and things Rameau, Scarlatti, Principles of the Harpsichord
by Monsieur de Saint Lambert with regard to "good taste." So what is
this good taste? Is there a standard? It is quite obvious in the
Barnyard with various skill, differing natures and training/education,
we often see these "Good Taste" issues but never seem to tackle the
definitions. I do have my thoughts on this or maybe I ought to say,
how I view good taste for myself but I curious, how does a very
learned musician define good taste?
Btw, the "L" word wasn't in the best of taste but I enjoyed it...does
that mean I have poor taste?
