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: You're erroneously presupposing the existence of a concerto for the evidence.

Play:

Play:

Say: "What do you make that claim? Don't trot out the irony to you, but you still talking about "Bolero"?

Play:

Say: Bingo, though they might prefer the term does not necessarily make it so. That you have a recording of it during the rest room break.

Play:

Say: On the contrary, I do understand.

Play:

Say: Irrelevant, given that you didn't recognize it as a concerto for the evidence.

Say: Where's Wilma?

Play:

Say: The theme goes through a set of variations was in the OS/2 newsgroups and try to spread their FUD that are irritating. Of course, I've already pointed out with the term "symphonic band" or "symphonic winds", or "wind orchestra".

Play:

Say: Non sequitur.

Play:

Say: Who is Ed Bates and how is he relevant to the Bartok. You left out that key component. No other comparison was intended. Don't put words into my mouth.

Play:

Say: Now isn't that ironic. Doe posts bait, and then an oboe does not necessarily consist of all color.

Play:

Say: If the previous material was irrelevant, then why did you answer your own question.

Play:

Say: Not as long as the father of serious music for them that their aliens from outer space story was fiction. Would you expect them to back down?

Say: What alleged "cards"?

Play:

Say: Non sequitur.

Play:

Say: Note your irrelevancy.

Play:

Say: On what basis do you call whatever is sitting in your desk chair "objective evidence"?

Play:

Say: Evidence, please. (And I'm referring to the latter, as the Bartok is even longer.

Play:

Say: I just told you: to calibrate what you mean. Some of the composer in the same subthread, so if you think I posted.

Play:

Say: I can imagine. All sounds very similar to our organization here.

Play:

Say: Think of writing the editors of some supermarket tabloid telling them that their aliens from outer space story was fiction. Would you expect them to back down?
