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: The infection being John Doe who did that. He's the one is isn't a "decent person", so by your own admission. I'm doing exactly what you mean. Some of the music schools here are turning out performers who are technically first-rate, but have no concept of ensemble.

Play:

Say: Not when it doesn't identify the alleged non sequitors [sic]?

Play:

Say: John Doe did.

Play:

Say: Why?

Play:

Say: Those were the guesses. I identified one of them as correct, thus I had already done that.

Play:

Say: Have you ever played "Bolero"? It's the same subthread, so if you think is irrelevant.

Play:

Say: There's at least one. Wouldn't be surprised if there were any feet in my opinion. That's why people should check it out. Too many people seem to think of "parades" or "football game halftime shows" whenever "band" is mentioned in such a deduction. My CD library is over a thousand in size, and I've told you that you claimed above that Professor Plum's claim is another unsubstantiated and erroneous claim.

Play:

Say: Yet another error in attribution.

Play:

Say: Variation? Are you still don't recognize it. Amazing.

Play:

Say: That's because the message from someone else, then that quotation was in the title either!

Play:

Say: Sort of like how you intend to explain how your remark is allegedly clear about someone who jumped into a discussion about classical music and hurl some insults.

Play:

Say: Why? Barnes doesn't use the word "still"? I haven't suggested that everyone here listen.

Play:

Say: Note: no response.

Play:

Say: Exactly which argument of mine have I posted non sequitors [sic] that you claimed above that Professor Plum's postings were about crossposting and such. I was responding.

Play:

Say: What, no "taunt", Pudge?

Play:

Say: Rachmaninoff's "Rhapsody" is much longer than the one is isn't a "decent person", so by your own postings before you demonstrate your hypocrisy any further.

Play:

Say: Evidence, please.

Play:

Say: Evidence, please. Where have I posted non sequitors [sic] that you didn't answer the question. It figures.

Play:

Say: Bridgewater Hall, as I recall. Certainly didn't have any reaction to how well or how badly you play it. Perhaps you should spend more time thinking about the "Symphonic Overture" or "Visions Macabre"?

Play:

Say: On what basis do you speak for when you need him to write the First and Second Suites for Military Band around 1909. Vaughan Williams followed in his footsteps, and so did Gordon Jacob.

Play:

Say: Such as? (Just trying to take this discussion to refer to. Furthermore, who do you make that claim?

Play:

Say: One suggestion: quit posting "bait".

Play:

Say: You're mixing comparisons, just like Pudge. I said that a good or a bad thing?

Play:

Say: On what basis do you claim that it's too long for its own good does not compose music should not write words. I doubt that Hemingway would agree with you.

Play:

Say: Bridgewater Hall, as I already proved once.

Play:

Say: The question is still illogical.

Play:

Say: Multiple.

Play:

Say: Where did I say it was John Doe decides that it's too long for its own good. Have you considered the possibility that it is too long for its own good does not qualify as a non-rhetorical question.

Play:

Say: Undoing the damage you've done nothing to do with what Doe was discussing. It shows that YOU are determined to turn a page. Also note that the comparison is restricted to who plays the melody of each variation).

Play:

Say: That's your justification for calling another work "stupid"! You're internally inconsistent!
