Members of the cher public indigenous to the District of Columbia and its environs will welcome Anne Midgette as music critic for the Washington Post, as leaked this morning on Ionarts.  In fact, Midgett’s full-time appointment is good news on a national scale, given the media’s current scary cutbacks in arts coverage.

The scribe’s current less than cheerful assignment is to write the obituary of legendary press representative Edgar Vincent, whom Midgette describes as the “antithesis of the stereotypical loud-mouth, attention-hungry PR rep.”
