, it's hard to imagine anything better than the symphonies.s what orchestras can and should be playing often. but to only play that music would be the death of it. even somebody who thinks, oh, i only want to hear beethoven up a time, will have their opinion of beethoven improved by hearing other things. i actually think that the challenge is more on the other side. i think it is difficult to make the case still that new music and music today has a rightful place in the repertoire of orchestras. i think it's actually the other way around. i think beethoven will be stronger if the composers of today are celebrated. there is a lot more to presenting new music than identifying masterpieces. part of the reason we play new music is to keep the field of composition alive and fresh. if you play one contemporary composers music, in some sense, you are inspiring all contemporary composers to continue to suffer and struggle with the act of composition, which is the hardest and most noble thing that any musician does. charlie: and the quality of it today
