I love classical music, and I am convinced that 90% of the reason people think they don't is because of people like the Charles Petzold. Deriving your self worth from being an enjoyer of art that someone else created is the high pretention.
I've learned, sometimes through hard periods of self reflection, that attempting qualitative evaluation of others choice in music is a fools errand.
To put it bluntly, and quote Duke Ellington, by way of Peter Schickele, if if it sounds good, it is good
