"Music, I regret to say, affects me merely as an arbitrary succession of more or less irritating sounds."
Did he really not like music? Is there any record of him praising a musician?

He said he liked his son's singing voice as well as a few violin pieces, but that's it

Thanks Nabokov, you really saved art

i've always considered music to be the most entry-level of the arts
>>7678071
you can't get more entry level than painting

sonic disturbance only takes away from thinking

How is it entry level? You can get extremely complex with music.

more complex is worse. it only means more irritating sounds
