Ozzy Osbourne - Working Class Hero

Let us turn to such a musician as Karl Richter - music lovers are still enthusiastically talking about his “romantic” performance of Bach’s compositions. Was such a perception unacceptable, since it found the approval of the general public? Or take Thomas Beecham, whose 1959 version of the Messiah sounds very pompous in today's conditions, but nevertheless it did not require bringing together as many orchestras and choirs as was customary during the 19th century Handel festivals in England. Beachem was sure that Handel would have nothing against a slight “modernization” of his music in order to maintain its popularity.
