Amusing, isn't it, how he quotes Schoenberg's claim "[Wagner] will ensure the supermacy of German Musik for another hundred years" in perfect Dr Strangelove intonation.

Lovingly critical observations, all over the talk. How Schoenberg's notion of retrograde inversion is "rather like a fly walking on the ceiling, backwards".

"Schoenberg's Germanic mind demanded logic, and if scientific proof was unavailable, the illusion of logic would do."

Deeply emphatetic criticism.
