I'm old fashioned, I guess; I think the old ways are better.
Some are. Some aren't.
I've no objection to musical freedom, I just advocate "try then decide".
I also think one learns more form one note of a great player than a
whole book of deconstructionist.

Exactly. You've said it. That why I try to learn something from Karamazov.

As you might expect - I advocate the same thing as Haynes, sans

anything by, say, Matteis.

You should check out Bruce Haynes book "The end of early music"
I couldn't agree more. It's a very good read. Although Haynes is a
strong advocate for the writing of "new" music in the Baroque style,
which makes me balk a little bit. I'd rather go to original 17th- or
18th-Century sources than try to deal with French trills in something
written last Tuesday.
