This is a really insightful clip in different ways. I like your explanation about the old masters, who learned their technique first, and then they could play freely later, I like that you point out the distinction between learning the language, compared to saying something interesting with that language. It kind of explains Eddie Van Halen mastering the neck tapping technique on guitar, but it was his playing so freely that nobody could compare to. Everybody else thought they had achieved the Van Halen schtick merely because they were expert at tapping on the neck of the guitar. EVH inspired a generation of neck tapping rock guitar bands in the 1980s, but Most still lacked the personality and sheer joy of playing freely like Eddie Van Halen. "Eruption" is the most concentrated EVH song to display his technique mastery. Yet his first-take guitar lead in Michael Jackson's "Beat It" made them both into superstars!

There are many theories as to why new music is an orphan. George Rochberg laid the problem squarely at the feet of Arnold Schoenberg, an idea with which I took exception. When I responded to him with a question relating to the contretemps between Schenker and Schoenberg beginning around 1910, he got very excited. “That’s EXACTLY the point! Who are you?” When I identified myself as a cellist, he said, “A cellist. And this interests you?” after which he turned away and pointedly took no further interest in communicating with me. It struck me then that there might be another reason why new music is an orphan.

It's a very important topic to discuss. However I personally don't think the problem is at people's minds or character. The problem is the fact that there's no common language in our eclectic time. Every young musician is expected by their tutors and mentors to look for their own language. Sometimes you are expected to come with a different language for each piece you write. This of course offers many exciting possibilities, but also extremely difficult to maintain. The inevitable outcome is a decrease in quality of content.

I think composers like Billone or Xenakis have enough technique for their big substance.
