This is plain false. Those non-white and non-male artists who have reached sophistication and virtuosity comparable to Mozart and Beethoven were and are still acclaimed. Don't try to shove a narrative where there isn't one.
Also, this doesn't add anything to the discussion about why audiences prefer dead (!) white (!!) male (!!!) composers like Mozart and Beethoven over the works of early experimental electronic composers. The answer is simply because most people don't like listening weird noise.

- wpietri 5y agoYour theory is that although we have clear historical evidence of centuries and centuries of broad societal oppression based on gender and race, that there was some countervailing force in art that perfectly balanced that out such that the playing field for art was entirely level? Please do explain what that force was. In detail. With examples. Because that sounds entirely implausible to me.
