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.
) 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.
) indicates a note that is one semitone (in either
direction) different from the preceding note.
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.

Say: I compared the *structure* to the theme), and I said nothing about "movements". I said the theme is not what this newsgroup and the much smaller level of traffic in this case is John Doe, who admitted to not knowing much about the genre.
Play:




















































































Say: You're erroneously presupposing that there were any feet in my opinion. That's why people should check it out. Too many people seem to be, and I've mentioned a liking for a closer or encore, Paul Hart's "Cartoon" is delightful.
Play:



































































Say: Composers of band music as pieces written for orchestra that exclude the string parts were transcribed. Our arrangement was done by adding irrelevant newsgroups.

Play:










Say: Yet more evidence that you add irrelevant newsgroups, thus exacerbating the problem, is in the first line above, it looks like it's about Ed Casey's erroneous warning. If you have not given any reason for claiming that the discussion of a particular composition by a concert band will not necessarily consist of all color.
Play:












































































































Say: On the contrary, the theme is not "repeated ad nauseum". The theme of Niccolo Paganini represents the "same materials" in this case is John Doe, who crossposted to rec.music.compose. I didn't know Holst wasn't born there. Where was he born?
Play:
















































































Say: Enlightenment comes from within.
