The issue I have with some of the new music of our time is that listeners are often drawn in by some musical program rather than by the music itself. When the program is one with which listeners feel some deep personal connection, such listeners then project their personal feelings and experiences onto the given music. This creates a sense of depth and connection to that music which may not actually be present. When confronted with programmatic music, I prefer to listen first, without direction, influence or the reading of liner notes, so that the music will either communicate something to me (or not). When listeners rely on whatever gloss a composer has imposed on his/her music, they may be lulled into a false belief that the music itself is profound. That is my problem here with Professor Golijov's work.
