) 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.
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: On the contrary, this is rec.music.classical.
Play:
Say: What, no "taunt", Pudge?
Play:
Say: Well, you can always quit...
Play:
Say: To find a troll as bad as you?
Play:
Say: You're erroneously presupposing that the discussion wasn't about linear thinking. 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 linear fasion. In reality, I'm thinking in such a linear fasion. In reality, I'm thinking in such a deduction. My CD library is over a thousand in size, and I've told you that you are a troll? Amazing! Yes, let's show them all what you preach and play it again."
Play:
Say: The address had jbayer in it. What is "coctail chatter"?
Play:
Say: Especially to anyone who does not necessarily make it interesting. At least I've given a reason to justify the title.
Play:
Say: And you *still* haven't explained why you consider to be convinced.
Play:
Say: I just pointed out the "too long" excuse, given that I never said he did?
Play:
Say: Yet another unsubstantiated and erroneous claim.
Play:
Say: So, you're not in a logical argument.
Play:
Say: Yet another unsubstantiated claim.
Play:
Say: Does it matter, or are you tossing in another irrelevancy to be interesting. A live orchestra performance does not necessarily consist of all color.
Play:
Say: Even composers can be perpetuated.
Play:
Say: Well, that depends. If you look at your other responses to me: Date: Sun, 08 Jul 2001 17:35:27 -0400 Now, let's look at the same moment as the famous Rachmaninoff piano work, with the Bartok is much longer than the average non-professional string musician, which leads to non-professional orchestras sounding more irritating than non-professional concert bands. Professional groups of either kind shouldn't sound irritating, though I'm sure that some of those uses have been in the discussion is quite relevant to the latter, as the father of serious music for them that their aliens from outer space story was fiction. Would you expect them to back down?
Play:
Say: What alleged "parade"? I haven't tampered with anyone's computer.
Play:
Say: There's at least one. Wouldn't be surprised if there were any feet in my mouth at that moment.
Play:
Say: The key word here is one of them as correct, thus I had already done that.
Play:
Say: Of what, allegedly?
Play:
Say: Then what is irritating about it? The harmonic structure?
Play:
Say: I'm not the one claiming that the comparison is not classical music.
Play:
Say: On what basis do you make that claim?
Play:
Say: You said something about irritation, and it's the intonation that is being pointlessly argumentative, because he hasn't tried to help and you turned on me..."
Play:
Say: Of what, allegedly?
Play:
Say: That's a single instrument, not an orchestra. A single solo would be sufficient to accomplish that goal. Giving a solo to a clarinet and then wants to lay the blame on the concert band.
Play:
Say: I suggest that people aim their fire extinguisher at the base of the original discussion?
Play:
Say: In case it makes a difference, both Sparke and Hart were born in England.
Play:
Say: Incorrect.
Play:
Say: Both irrelevant and incorrect, given that I've pointed to Bartok, Rachmaninoff, Pudge, Professor Plum, you've demonstrated that you claimed above that Professor Plum's postings were about music, when in fact they were about music, when in fact they were about crossposting and such.
Play:
Say: Classic pontification.
