One listen to ‘Ocean Kingdom’ and I’m totally convinced Mc Cartney should continue in this vein. Seriously impressive and sincere without resorting to flashy effects to grab our attention. The introduction had me in it’s spell within a minute.
Thanks Crazy Horse for pointing me in this direction.
And believe me, when it comes to classical music I’m about as hard to please an anyone. It occurs to me we’ve heard so little about McCartney’s serious works due to the inverted snobbery of conservatory educated composers who for the last century have produced a large body of intellectually pretentious and utterly vacuous crap.
OK, there are geniuses out there today like Arvo Pürt, John Tavener and Graham Sutherland but some ( in my opinion ) such as Philip Glass are as a dull as dishwater.
