Rob, you're ranting at the wrong person. Mr. Canarutto did not write
what you are reacting to; it was from Valerie.

What an ignorant, arrogant, comment to make. Perhaps Valerie was
being funny. Humor I'm sure is so far beneath your deep and complex
culture. Absolutely amazing Ignorance. There are times when the
brass sound should not be as dominant, and the strings should
prevail. there are times when the wood winds should dominate and
come out of the texture. In earlier classical music brass was used
as punctuation like percussion. These are things that make music
interesting, and orchestras sound different from one another. If
the balance were the same all the time and no one coming to the
fore it would make for a pretty banal performance. although Mr.
Canarutto might like that , which is fine. I guess 300$ Prada shoes
and no decent toilet paper, that sounds real deep and complex, no
superficiality there. Go back and read some history, there might be
a few other things that came from this side of the Atlantic that
allowed you to continue to live in your deep and complex culture at
great cost to us.
