Listening to his lectures or reading his works are a great way to equip oneself with the vocabulary and frameworks for understanding the nuances and arguably the ideals of art. 

"(For) the real performance of serious music is one half of a dialogue, the other half of which is a deep stillness; a stillness of people brought together by listening."
- Roger Scruton
