Extraordinary How Potent Cheap Music Is

James Lileks, from a recent Bleat:
I love rock and roll, but the idea that four people on stage, one of whom has an amplified lyre, can match the power and drama of orchestral music is simply ridiculous.
Can't say I think much of this "proof." A movie can have a cast of thousands, with hundreds of settings and fancy costumes, but that doesn't mean, even if well done, it must be more powerful than a stage show with two people talking to each other. It ain't what you do, it's the way that you do it.
