Questions Of Value

Decided that I need to consciously restrict myself to watching material of genuine value on YouTube. To that end I thoroughly enjoyed an illuminating lecture on Messiaen's Quartet for the End of Time this evening, learning a lot about the exact circumstances in which it was composed and how the great composer understood the notion of time in relation to his own music. Unfortunately I also watched some celebrity-related rubbish in the course of the day which I'm too embarrassed to link to. It's so easy to be shallow, eh?
