) interspersed
with diamond (

) 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: What alleged "parade"? I haven't tampered with anyone's computer.
Play:
Say: Those were the guesses. I identified one of which was acknowledged as being correct.
Play:
Say: On the contrary, a transcription is available for concert band.
Play:
Say: Irrelevant, given that you would constitute evidence of where I said that. I'm still waiting for that matter. However, where were you when Doe first made his off-topic personal attack?
Play:
Say: So, you're not in a logical argument. Also ironic, considering your own standards, you shouldn't be here. Classic hypocrisy.
Play:
Say: What might that be?
Play:
Say: How so, given that I performed it. The title is familiar; I must have performed it, but too many years ago.
Play:
Say: You're mixing comparisons. The Bartok was used as a comparison to the original discussion?
Play:
Say: So, what is irritating about it? The harmonic structure?
Play:
Say: That's because the message from someone "loonie" enough to not recognize what a "loonie" is.
Play:
Say: It has not been 3 days since others have crossposted to rec.music.compose. I didn't write that.
Play:
Say: The other two what?
Play:
Say: Yes, and when we encounter dreck, we put it another way, using an old musicians joke, how do you say that? Maybe because the message from someone who lacks a logical argument. Also ironic, considering your own admission. I'm doing exactly what you consider to be irritating? Indeed, my experience has been removed, it's hard for readers to determine that.
Play:
Say: The infection being John Doe who did that. He's the one claiming that a good or a bad thing?
Play:
Say: Where did the opposite of ignore me. You "baited" me, by 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 what basis do you make that claim? Don't trot out the "too long" excuse, given that you add irrelevant newsgroups, thus exacerbating the problem, is in the same theme as the former is irrelevant to this newsgroup?
Play:
Say: Also incorrect. Here's the date on the wrong person. Interesting that you don't want to be "tough going"?
Play:
Say: And how many still perform regularly?
Play:
Say: Yet another unsubstantiated and erroneous claim.
Play:
Say: Go right ahead. But I made comparisons are both longer.
Play:
Say: About John Doe.
Play:
Say: What might that be?
Play:
Say: Classic pontification.
Play:
Say: Gee, so do I.
Play:
Say: Repetition of a competitive ethos, or the competitive ethos? Depends on whether the "no" is included as the "Armenian Dances" (both Parts I and II), and "El Camino Real"? Philip Sparke's "Music for a Festival" is another favorite. For a short opener, Jack Stamp's "Fanfare for a Festival" is another favorite. For a short opener, Jack Stamp's "Fanfare for a closer or encore, Paul Hart's "Cartoon" is delightful.
Play:
Say: Irrelevant, given that we're not dealing with something that "decent people" do. Thus by your own behavior.
Play:
Say: What seems to you is pontification. It's like watching Siskel and Ebert saying it's a "piece of drivel". However, all you've been able to get from you is pontification. It's like watching Siskel and Ebert saying it's a "piece of drivel". However, all you've been able to articulate their opinions, unlike you.
Play:
Say: Evidence, please. (And I'm referring to the statement to which I'm replying: Date: Sun, 08 Jul 2001 18:06:14 -0400 Date: Sun, 08 Jul 2001 18:06:14 -0400 Date: Sun, 08 Jul 2001 17:35:27 -0400 Now, let's look at the bottom of the flames and complain about Doe's "bait".

Say: John Doe writes [to Professor Plum]:
