Actually, twenty-four, since I have a close friend who is a musician and teacher who also loves contemporary classical music. We're picky - the list doesn't include Phillip Glass but does include John Corigliano, Peter Mennin, John Adams and Jennifer Higdon.

OTOH, I cant say I prefer contemporary composers over Bach or Purcell or Brahms or Vaughn-Willimas or Bartok. Good music is good music. So maybe you are down to 22.

Yes, life does seem to be that way when it comes to personal taste.

As far as movies go, I respect Ebert for the passion he brings to movie watching and his enthusiasm for the medium. But I often disagree with him. I certainly don't like most blockbusters. so I'm out od sorts with popular movie tatses, but that's true for most popular culture. Evert is one critic with a higher tolerance for commercial/cimplex fodder than other critics. But the man loves movies.

I'm not an elitist, BTW, I just have good taste. Of course ;-)
