No music desert in Basel!
A concerned friend and admirer of Switzerland |
/ #56 Get off the wrong track, Switzerland. It's not too late!2015-01-14 19:13You are on the wrong track because 1) Switzerland will lose some of it's great reputation and prestige without it's rich, world-class musical life. Music is the jewel in your crown. Guard it. 2) The very people you should get rid of benefit from this. Musicians are the least likely of all to be terrorists because Terrorist-brand Islam bans most classical instruments as well as the female voice. In fact being an instrumentalist, unless you are a drummer engaged solely in Islamic music and a few other exception, or being a female singer, is seen as haram enough to varrant death by many extremists. 3) Switzerland attracts some of the most talented foreign musicians and students in the world due to it's reputation. This law change is voluntary brain-drain and that talent will go elsewhere. Students will arrive in fewer numbers, because many hope to stay in the country they come to study in, and some of the world's very best musicians will leave Switzerland, meaning that you are chasing away some of the very creme-de-la-creme of your immigrants. People who would have generally contributed to Switzerland, it's cultural life and it's society in a monetary fashion and also in a way far beyond material value, since music enriches people's life in a multitude of ways, except for those who choose to hate and oppose it. 4) Classical musicians generally respect Western values and tradition and even the best classical musicians with research positions at Universities generally do not hold 75% employment from one employer. Musicians actually grow and improve from this diversity. 5) Since musicians from Switzerland also only hold 75% single employer employment, only exception being children's piano and guitar teachers with no further carrier ambitions than that, since becoming a great soloist or composer and holding that kind of job is not combatible, the former will sabbotage any attempt of the latter, this measure could be seen as racist and discriminatory and nationalistic. We all know Switzerland isn't that kind of country, it is a very great country indeed, and it should take care not to tarnish it's own image or misrepresent itself in the eyes of the world. |
