Enervating pomp? Does the writer really mean 'enervating'? I'm inclined to believe this is a malapropism.
Surely the writer means either 'enervated' or 'energising', or possibly, 'energised'? As it is, this phrase means that the pomp of the music weakens the listener. This may well be true, but any such outlandish claim should require some sort of explanation, I'd have thought.
