Classical Music Under Assault Ii Academia
30th March 2021
Oxford University reportedly is under pressure to stop, or at least curtail, the teaching of sheet music, musical notation, and even the classical music that was scored upon it. The rationale is that all of this is “too colonial,” and that Beethoven, Mozart, and music in general are “complicit in white supremacy.”
It’s not just students and BLM groups that are pushing this insanity. In fact, professors seem to be leading the charge.
