xps map very OTM. "Relevance" is...irrelevant to the value of all music IMO. That's a different discussion for a different thread though!

Eddie Cantor was never critically lauded.
The real answer to this is loads of boring opera.

was this guy lauded? sounds like it...
"November 11 – Première of John Foulds's A World Requiem (composed 1919–21) at the Royal Albert Hall in London. It is repeated on that date each year until 1926."

fact: 78 speed was not fixed until 1929 and even then some companies pressed records that were recorded closer to 80rpm; before '29 a lot of the major label things are really better played at 76.5rpm.
kill me.

Music critics in 1923 would never for a moment take pop music or jazz seriously - the first tiny crack in that came with Rhapsody In Blue, which premiered on February 12, 1924.

Music critics in 1923, indeed, even worse than they are today.

Most critically lauded contemporary composer in 1923 would possibly be Jean Sibelius?
