But when I, or presumably you, listen to Eric Clapton's guitar solos, you are not grateful for the abstract quality you call "genius" but instead the pleasure of the emotional reactions elicited in us by his playing. Music, like genius, is not about morals. It appeals to us in a way that can cross boundaries of class, age, upbringing, language, religion, or pretty much anything we are clever enough to split ourselves into groups for. All what you say here is very interesting but like a politician you address the points you want to talk about rather than the ones you were asked about.
