Classical Music is Boring (the blog)

A scene from Classical Music is Boring.
Regular readers may know that I’ve taken quite an interest in classical music blogs. Last year, I created a website called the Big List of Classical Music Blogs (here), in which I catalogued all the blogs on the topic that I could find on the internet. When I launched the BLCMB, it contained over 300 links. Now there are more than 550.

So, to make a long story short, I’ve seen a lot of blogs – big blogs, small blogs, good blogs, bad blogs. But I’ve never seen anything quite like the Classical Music is Boring blog, which was recently brought to my attention.


It’s run by Kevin Mendoza and Bob Kasenchak, a pair of academically inclined bloggers in the San Francisco area (I believe).  It’s presented in comic-strip form, with captioned photos, and features a surreal cast of human and not-so-human characters talking about music. For a self-consciously blatant display of intellectualism it’s bouncing-off-the-walls crazy. Have a look (here), and you’ll see what I mean.

I wasn't aware of the many ripples and depth to this story until I surfed here through Msn! Excellent job. Respectfully.

    Eatock Daily

    I'm a composer based in Toronto – and this is my classical music blog, Eatock Daily.

    When I first started blogging, Eatock Daily was a place to re-post the articles I wrote for Toronto’s Globe and Mail and National Post newspapers, the Houston Chronicle, the Kansas City Star and other publications.

    But now I have stepped back from professional music journalism, and I'm spending more time composing.

    These days, my blog posts are infrequent, and are mostly concerned with my own music. However, I do still occasionally post comments on musical topics, including works I've discovered, enjoyed, and wish to share with others.
