I always think of the Hesse because they are so distinct and because they both arrive at a similarly enlightened understanding. But I like the...
Ha. Unknown indeed. I have used the Golden Mean in some of my earlier works, but I am afraid these present works were written by Goldmund and...
Sorry, easy mistake for a desert rat to make. Yes, I was thinking the same thing. Indeed, i was just wondering whether this would be dismissed...
Eddy - Your comment may cause me to consider adding a descriptive word here and there. A "tempo rubato" or "tempo giusto" would probably help in...
This sums it up pretty succinctly. Did anyone say Grieg? To me what you are saying is that there are multiple ways in music to create stress....
That is just what I want to hear. Well, I do to. But these pieces are so complicated in terms of tempo, with continual rubato, metric...
Thank you, Eddy. I am beginning to think this is the way to go. I am honored that you would add it to your library. Best wishes, Glenn
Your replies have given me the idea that maybe the exact spatial representation of the music isn't really that important. Maybe the notation...
Scott - CPE is one of my favorite composers. An impossibly creative mind in a period of otherwise rather dreadful music. (Haydn being the...

Thank you, Eddy. No, the "bent notes" were not intended. I think some of the horns were uncomfortable playing in close harmony. When I am...
Thanks Sharma! I am sorry, I missed your post. The performance went pretty well considering the performers were all in high school. I have the...
Being also a bass player, my opinion of the Pachebel Canon (which is in D, by the way) can be summed up by the following video on YouTube...
Be careful with sarcasm, you can't always wink at your audience. The best sarcasm is also GOOD. Most sarcasm is brutally obvious, like the...
I have played with LL twice with the Phoenix Symphony. The first time was when he first was making the rounds as a soloist. We all thought he...
You are absolutely right! This is a problem. It can remedied somewhat by extracting what is l.h. and r.h. into separate tracks beforehand, but...
I like these preludes as well. They show imagination and inspiration. I would just cut the first one before the slow part, which to me,...
This is an interesting discussion, but for me it has become pretty simple. When you try to compare acoustically produced music to that produced...
