Alex Ross is a genius- it’s official!
Yes, the New Yorker writer has been given a MacArthur Genius Award and it’s well-deserved. Not only is he one of the finest writers about classical music, he is one of the best music journalists around, period. Check out his blog and his book if you haven’t already and you’ll be glad that you did.

<i>The Rest Is Noise</i> was a remarkable achievement—a “work of genius,” perhaps?—and I’m excited to hear that Ross will soon begin working on another book.
