Chrie: I don't know if it would be correct to say that "Repulsion" by
Roman Polanski 'changed" my taste in films. Perhaps it was a matter of
discovering that I had a taste for "art films". Bela C

  I'd like to read about some of the listers' personal experiences on
  this
  issue.

  When did a specific work change your taste ? How long did it take ?

  Regarding myself -- although I have certainly changed my mind about
  certain
  novels, paintings, and musical recordings (sometimes liking them more
  --
  sometimes less) -- I can't identify a specific piece to say : "yes,
  this is
  what changed my taste"

  Wait -- maybe that JSP box set of the Carter Family really did turn
  the corner
  for me regarding Hillbilly music -- with it special quality of
  resignation
  and mourning.

  But usually it's way more gradual for me -- and even if eventually I
  come to
  enjoy a genre that I never had never enjoyed before (like Hillbilly
  music), I
  will probably never be as confident in my judgments about specific
  performances as I am with those genres, like jazz vocal or figure
  sculpture,
  with which I've lived my entire life.
