“Occasional Variations” by Milton Babbit (May 10, 1916 – January 29, 2011)
“Babbitt felt that music should be accorded the same respect and the same ability to experiment that we find in advanced physics or higher mathematics. If it doesn’t “speak” to you, well, it’s not supposed to – any more than quantum physics is intelligible to people who are not quantum physicists.”
