Thank you for getting into my reply, and sharing more of your musical perspective.
Typing that "now I think I'm forced to offer a link here" is rocking this forum,
and is the best reply to me. Right on! As soon as I click here I'll take a look.
And if my musical dialogue does fade into the environment, for you, like a long echo delay,
with a little phasing and flanging to widen the note movements and extend the sound envelope,
that's because I'm still a Jimi Hendrix fan, even if I have pretentions about being symphonic-electric.
To speak proper English, and possibly goad you into more of a response,
how can you call yourself a classical composer?
That's like advertising that describes a new product as a classic or historic.
You're beating around that bush when you wonder if you're avant garde, but saying you're too timid for that.
I'm guessing that your timidity is based on using historic symphonic instruments,
and not the bangings and beatings on of everyday objects that define avant garde for so many.
In the pop and rock world, if you were trying to recreate the style and sounds of first use musicians,
and that first use is mainly based on the electronic technology as it evolves and propogates,
you'd be called retro something. Maybe you're retro-classical or neo-classical.
Yeah, language. Thanks for learning English as defined by James of Scotland, the emerging global language.
Unless my font isn't fun for you.
Uh-oh! I'm sorry if my glib fingerwork takes you away from your very impressive works.
Your domain, from graphics to production accolades, is more than just impressive.
I have to ask. Is that one graphic a computer assisted close-up of Frederik Magle's hair,
when he's in mid-movements above the keyboard? Jus'askin'.
I'm sensing and seeing some of the same into the flames that he's been burning.
