On Late Style examines the work produced by great artists -Beethoven, Thomas Mann, Jean Genet among them – at the end of their lives. Said makes it clear that, rather than the resolution of a lifetime's artistic endeavour, most of the late works discussed are rife with contradiction and almost impenetrable complexity. He helps us see how, though these works often stood in direct contrast to the tastes of society, they were, just as often, announcements of what was to come in the artist's discipline – works of true artistic genius.

He spoke to the young graduates of the need to realize that music “is the product of the purely artificial construction of systematic thought,” the word artificial signifying not a negative but a positive thing, “that it does relate to an obverse” and is not at all an “analyzable commodity,” but rather that “it is hewn from negation, that it is but very small security against the void of negation that surrounds it
