Instructions

Alternate sections are marked Say and Play. The Say sections are spoken or sung to an improvised tune in a stentorian and condescending manner, as a traffic court judge lecturing a recidivist speeder. Read as though the text makes perfect sense, even though its grammar and meaning may make sudden, unexpected turns.

The Play sections use an ordinary five-line staff with oval note heads () interspersed with diamond () and cross () note heads. Play in a manner that contrasts with the lecturer's attitude. Be mocking or solicitous or calm or resigned or anything else appropriate.

• I've used bar lines set off groups of notes. Groups should be observed by accent, phrasing, pauses or some other way.
• The cross () indicates some non-standard noise, like a multiphonic or a strum behind the bridge or a dropped drumstick or a cheese-grater arpeggio or something else. Use your imagination.
• The diamond () indicates a note that is one semitone (in either direction) different from the preceding note.
• Rhythm, tempo and dynamics are entirely up to the performer. Since no clef is specified, you can pick that as well.

You can play in concert with other performers, who may play other versions of this piece, or other any other materials, composed or improvised. When playing with others, the Say sections should be performed as disruptively as possible, and the Play sections should be played sensitively, with utmost regard to enhancing the performance of the other players.

Score

Say: Obviously not, as indicated in his footsteps, and so did Gordon Jacob.

Play:

Say: Incorrect, as I said, hasn't been posting here since a few years ago.

Play:

Say: An illogical question, given that you can't even make friends with somebody who has never heard of you. Witness the number of repetitions you think you can.

Play:

Say: Where did I say it is.

Play:

Say: What for you to take it up with Doe.

Play:

Say: One suggestion: quit posting "bait".

Play:

Say: Or to put it another way, using an old musicians joke, how do you make that claim?

Play:

Say: Ah, so the powers that be now have a problem with where Doe's discussion belongs, take it up with Doe.

Play:

Say: I'm sure that no version of Eliza can argue logically.

Play:

Say: Why should it be the other way around? The music itself is inanimate; it won't have any reaction to how the variation jumps from instrument to instrument or section to section, just as in Bartok (note that the discussion is quite relevant to that judgment.

Play:

Say: North Cheshire makes it sound like you're in England. How popular are concert bands are extremely popular and fairly well represented in American record stores, but you still don't recognize it. Amazing.

Play:

Say: To find a troll nor a spammer is involved in the Star of Indiana drum amd bugle corp. Check out the "too long" excuse, given that I also mentioned the length of the Opera" in years, after having played it death and have it played by a concert band arrangement.

Play:

Say: But I had already read the message to which I'm responding were crossposted, such as yours, ironically.

Play:

Say: I'm now beginning to doubt that Hemingway would agree with you.

Play:

Say: Note your irrelevancy.

Play:

Say: Note: no response.

Play:

Say: That is a lie. My name has been that the brass bands are extremely popular and fairly well represented in American record stores, but you still don't recognize it. Amazing.

Play:

Say: Yes, given that the discussion is occurring.

Play:

Say: Yes.

Play:

Say: Evidence, please.

Play:

Say: On the contrary, you made a statement indicating awareness of "a number" of masterworks.

Play:

Say: Classic invective, as expected from someone else, which doesn't change the fact that concert bands there? I know that the Bartok was used as a non-rhetorical question.

Play:

Say: No claim will obviate the fact that your claim of speciousness is itself specious.

Play:

Say: John Doe at this point.

Play:

Say: Shorter than Rachmaninoff's "Rhapsody" and shorter than Bartok's "Concerto for Orchestra", to which I am unfamiliar.

Play:

Say: Irrelevant, given that the Moon is made of green cheese."

Play:

Say: However, Pudge's complaint is not "repeated ad nauseum". The theme of Niccolo Paganini represents the "same materials" in this newsgroup and the much smaller level of my argument is allegedly clear about someone who uses two different names?

Play:

Say: I was responding.

Play:

Say: Who else are you allegedly speaking for when you say that? In the Bartok, the solo jumps from instrument to instrument or section to section or soloist to soloist or section to section or soloist to soloist or section to section. My reference to the Bartok. You left out that key component. No other comparison was intended. Don't put words into my mouth.

Play:

Say: Irrelevant, given that the comparison is restricted to who plays the melody of each variation).
