A citizenry concerned about its intellectual, artistic, cultural, and spiritual life will find ways to increase its support of that life. There’s no assurance that art and music will escape the bureaucratic problems that we experience in other affairs. I’m not so sure that great works of human art can be subscribed by a government edict. The great works of art will appear or not appear, depending on whether there are great people to write them and a sufficient audience to receive them. Democracy will create its own sponsorships – and it’s just that it should – but a great citizenry will see to it that the arts become an important part of human life.
