Description
In this lively and provocative talk, Senior Lecturer Davinia Caddy explores the so-called ‘death’ of the professional music critic, asking after the influence of social media, digital technologies, celebrity culture and Bond -- James Bond.
With reference to a range of musical examples from Mozart and Van Morrison to Ives and Ice Cube, Davinia investigates how the business of music criticism has developed over the years, and how we all might become better arm chair critics – more intuitive, intent and imaginative – with a little help from our favourite British spy.
