This Post Is Not About Film (Criticism)

It isn't in [up?] our alley, but I think I'd be remiss if I didn't mention this:

Is There A Future for Arts Criticism? (A Critic's Place, Thumbs and All)
A. O. Scott, New York Times, 3/31/2010

...because it all applies, in parallel, to classical [sic] music criticism as well.

Also, the article opens with this:

Two weeks ago I went to Atlanta to give a talk at a conference devoted, in part, to “The Future of Criticism.”

And I wasn't invited? Seriously? What the fuck?
