To comprehend the distaste for modernism, it must be admitted at the start that the greatest works of modernism in all the arts are, much of the time, fundamentally disagreeable when first encountered.

With the Beethoven sonata project, the emphasis was principally on the music, although Schnabel was considered its greatest exponent.

It was like going through a museum of an artist's greatest works.

It was admitted by the early rabbis that the sectarians could be as full of good works as eggs were full of meat.

It's all masonry for the most part on the exterior. Modernism is taking a fresh start in Dallas, and that's what we wanted here.
