Book is The Lemon Table Stories by Julian Barnes

"When I got home, Andew applied his usual logic in an attempt to deflate me. Perhaps my victim thought it OK to behave as he did because everyone around him was doing the same; it wasn't unmannerly but an attempt to be mannerly -- wenn in London ... Additional and alternatively, Andrew wanted to know, wasn't it the case that much music of that time was composed for royal or ducal courts, and wouldn't such patrons and their retinue have been strolling around, having a buffet supper, throwing chicken bones at the harpist, and flirting with their neighbours' wives while half-lisening to their lowly employee bash away at the spinet?"

-Let's out breath- Wow, that was kinda long.
