Reviews

[Reviewed together with 'Towards a Poetics of Music and the Arts'] [T]hese two short books by the distinguished music critic Christopher Wintle [...] seek to revive criticism as a means of thought and not just as a source of judgements and information. [...] What is more, he writes too well to speak only to musicians. [...] We have the example of a thinker for whom all the arts belong together and shed light on each other, something rare in criticism since Goethe and Ruskin pursued their idea of art wherever it led them.
