“Music is in crisis. Like many other basic human values and “instincts” it has been privatised, corporatised, manipulated and commodified. The traditions of elementary communication, sorrow and hope expressed through music have now become a marketable product. It is a job opportunity for the practitioner, and a money-spinner for everybody else involved in getting the listener and performer in the same room. The traditional meaning of music that reaches back for thousands of years is in danger, and that is where the focus should be.” - Jackie Orszacsky - 1948 - 2008
