The Spectacle Blog
Alfred Brendel is a great pianist, not a constitutional scholar, but he has a deep understanding of orginalism, properly understood:
"...the main thing I have learned early on is that you should
get the information about the piece from the piece, and not inform
it on the basis of what the piece should be like or what the
composer should have written."
