It's amazing how threads like this always come up when I was thinking about it! So I was listening to Charles Ives (early-mid 20th century composer) who was a brilliant musician and manipulator of sound. I had to listen for this Music in American society class and I really respected what he was doing in his compositions and the uniqueness and technical greatness. However, I found myself not really enjoying listening to it. He uses a lot of dissonance, and while I like dissonance I am not fond of dissonance sounding like it is purposeful and just out of place to be out of place. Hard to explain, but anyways... Back to work...or something...miss y'all I've kinda been immersed in studying and research. Love Nikki
