One element in the relative neglect of Rochberg seem to me to be
political--some will never forgive him for turning tail on atonality.
Also, some who have heard his masterpiece Piano Quintet (1976) cannot
forgive him writing one modernist movement along with one exactly in the
style of Schumann (and just as good as Schumann, I may add!).
