...genres of music, classical and popular. That Rockwell would even attempt such a synthesis speaks much about the music being produced today. As Rockwell writes, the barriers between the different worlds of music are breaking down, as is the media through which music reaches the public. Artists like Max Neuhaus--whose most well-known "work" is a sonorous organ sound which emerges from a Times Square grating--has redefined music, taking it out of the concert halls and making it a truly "popular" art form...

Taylor, a veteran community activist and a nationally influential churchman, has been at Concord Baptist for 31 years. He is widely regarded, with justice, as the dean of the nation's black preachers...
