That’s a better way of putting it. I would have liked to have been introduced to those composers in a way that sparked appreciation. Instead they were tokenized and held up alongside the man I was really there to see.
Ok...they did a better job than that. The Caroline Shaw piece they used was The Observatory. The Mazoli piece was the violin concerto Procession. We start with a telescope looking at the planets, proceed to an avant garde ascendance into the heavens, and then Planets just speaks for itself.
My wife and I had fun trying to pick which scifi/fantasy movies had ripped off Planets.
