Northern Silence
Addendum to best books of 2022 (2022-12-19)

Andrew Mellor, The Northern Silence: Journeys in Nordic Music & Culture .  I will read this one again.  It assumes some knowledge of the Nordic countries and also some knowledge of classical music, but it is exactly the kind of book I hope people will write.  It explains at a conceptual level how those countries built up such effective networks of musical production and consumption.

What I’ve been reading (2022-11-30)

4. Andrew Mellor, The Northern Silence: Journeys in Nordic Music & Culture .  An excellent book trying to understand the Nordic countries through the lens of music, architecture, and the arts.  “Finland has an unusually high proportion of expatriate Japanese.”  This one will make the addended “best of the year” list.  A good study of social capital, in addition to everything else.
