Although it is good to be understanded by the majority, the true value of any work of art lies in the thought it conveys. Sometimes the authors or composers make it easy to be found out, while sometimes the ideas are just to complex or obstruse to simply express, leaving the work needing some kinds of intelligence and having to be explained. After all, the real merit depends on the idea it conveys.
First, in order to have merit, the work of art needs to convey some important thought such as the distinct aspects of controvertial issues or making people know the need of some poor. The real greatness of any work lies in all the important thought underlying the work, that is, the meaning of the work. If a work just full of good skills and some hard efforts but simply be done for the show off of the artist and leave nothing more, the work will be meaningless, and, as a result, the merit will be pretty low, even though the praise it may get from some critics.
Second, there are kinds of work that are meanful but easy to be sensed. Some factors are the ability to convey complex idea, some are the complexity itself made the main theme of the work difficult to be expressed. No matter what is the principal cause, the merit of the work doesn't depend on the complexity, but the meanings. It needs not to be hard to sensed, but needs some kinds of meaning.
Third, there are still some brilliant works that are meanful but hard to be understanded. Even though the majority may hard to know what the author really want to convey, the true value of the work lies in the meaing in it, and the aboundance in it guarantees that it deserved the merit. They may need some one to explain what the work has, but once some guy gives them instuction, they will find that it deserved the merit.
In the end, it is the meaning that give the work merit, not the extent of understability. To have merit, one needs not to try to convey their complex ideas into simple ones, but simply express it.
