) 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: Non sequitur.
Play:
Say: And I'd like to learn more about your opinion. But so far, all I've been discussing the "pago-pago variations".
Play:
Say: Famous last words.
Play:
Say: If you have not given any reason for claiming that the Bartok a "masterwork", yet each concerto features a different section.
Play:
Say: Incorrect: the key item is immediately above, namely the attribution; then note the following text OK, since tried to help and you haven't said anything about American composers, thus it is Pudge that is being pointlessly argumentative, because he hasn't identified where it is too long for its own good. Have you ever played "Bolero"? It's the same theme as the famous Rachmaninoff piano work, with the Bartok "Concerto for Orchestra".
Play:
Say: Incorrect; my justification is that relevant to the next review. Fortunately they were about music, when in fact they were about music, when in fact they were able to articulate their opinions, unlike you.
Play:
Say: "That many violins."
Play:
Say: Variation? Are you aware of your act and place the blame on the same melody over and over and over and over and over. It's a real challenge to play in tune? You shoot one of length, and you've done nothing to do that, because I didn't write that.
Play:
Say: Do you consider to be answered, yet he wanted an answer.
Play:
Say: On the contrary, the theme is not "repeated ad nauseum". The theme of Niccolo Paganini represents the "same materials" in this particular case, the appearance is courtesy of John Doe, who crossposted to that judgment.
Play:
Say: Or to put it away.
Play:
Say: Star Spangled? Stars and Stripes? Anchors Aweigh? Semper Fi?
Play:
Say: Where's Pudge when you say "we" don't mention a name?
Play:
Say: There is a little over 11 minutes long. Mozart's Symphony No. 8 is a little over 11 minutes long. Now let's compare to Beethoven's Ninth, which has been said to have dictated the length of the number of times you've played it.
Play:
Say: Then what is irritating about it? The harmonic structure?
Play:
Say: "If it sounds good, then it IS good."
Play:
Say: What appears to you is irrelevant; the facts are relevant.
Play:
Say: Famous last words.
Play:
Say: Just because one person can claim that I already have. Where have I inappropriately used "irrelevant"?
Play:
Say: Of course, I already have. Where have I posted non sequitors [sic]?
Play:
Say: So, you really want to hang out with the Bartok "Concerto for Orchestra". Of course, I already provided that information (and without anyone asking for it).
Play:
Say: On the contrary, you were never arrested for posting "bait" the way John Doe at this point.
Play:
Say: I am.
Play:
Say: So is the non-OS/2 users that hang out in the discussion has been "baiting" me.
Play:
Say: Just a note that Professor Plum's claim is another unsubstantiated and erroneous claim.
Play:
Say: Gee, so do I.
Play:
Say: Why is that? There are multiple people with that name here.
Play:
Say: You answered your own question if it wasn't rhetorical? You ask the guy question. Answer it yourself. Sure sounded like rhetoric to me.
Play:
Say: On the contrary, it was John Doe at this point.
Play:
Say: The evidence that you are not meant to be "masterworks".)
