"Almost all the world" does not know what a lute is, and therefore

The piece reminded me of an ultra-low budget rip-off/ allusion/hommage
of Stockhausen's Mikrophonie 1 (1964).

I loved it, but I'm guessing not for the reasons the composers/performers
want me to. I haven't laughed so hard in a very long time. I love the
intent look of the performers and the crumbs that accumulate on their pant
legs.

This is something I strongly disagree! Roman said that "EM revival in
general was a
reaction to this type of (neo)modernism". I do not know, if Roman refers to
20's, 30's,
60's or 70's by the "EM revival", but in any of these cases I cannot see
any reaction
to "(neo)modernism". What I CAN see (at

Perhaps the fact that we're taking it so seriously is the joke, and

In that context, anything is possible. I knew a college professor
back in the day who was a composer. He called his work "radical-neo-
post-diatonicism." The weird thing was
Yes, 1st bow definitely is a better player than 2nd bow and 3rd bow.
But he's also got a much better sounding instrument. Probably from the
golden age of styrofoam - the 1940s - and from the Dow Chemical

Quite interesting piece and performance, indeed, but I must disagree with

Even though all member of the trio intently they studied the score as they
played, I couldn't help but notice small issues with their choice of
phrasing (why chop up those long line into smaller phrases?). Too much
showmanship and not enough value on the big picture. Their intonation was

If the composer's intent was to trigger our memories of sounds in
nature - such as flocks of vocal birds and barking dogs - I would say
he succeeded (at least in my case). But I prefer the natural sounds.
