Food for thought from a favorite children's author

Concerning the music of John Williams, and other composers whose work is dismissed as "popular":
"Art should communicate with as many people as possible." ~Madeleine L'Engle (in her book, Walking on Water: Reflections on Faith and Art)
Words from one of my heroes--with which I agree for the most part. Now, if she'd said "Art should always communicate with as many people as possible," I would have disagreed.
