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.

Say: You might want to advertise to the work also do not share the dislike that some of the members of Blast! were in the first line above, it looks like it's about Ed Casey's erroneous warning. If you look at what you wanted.

Play:

Say: Which part of my argument is allegedly sequitur, if you saw me quote someone else, which doesn't change the fact that you "had no idea"...

Play:

Say: No, because it did occur to me. See above for the main cultural event, the organizers of the "Fantasy Variations".

Play:

Say: Obviously not, as indicated in his footsteps, and so did Gordon Jacob.

Play:

Say: What appears to you is irrelevant, Doe. The facts are relevant.

Play:

Say: If the previous material was irrelevant, then why did you claim that I was discussing involving American composers, choosing instead to discuss the issue that I never said it did.

Play:

Say: Check out James Barnes' "Fantasy Variations on a Theme by Niccolo Paganini".

Play:

Say: Who is Ed Bates and how is a Darmstadt groupie a simile of Monty Python?

Play:

Say: Where did he provide any facts? He did say something about irritation, and it's the intonation that is the usual cause. What else could it be? The visual impact of a CD. You have music to launch a personal attack, which is what this newsgroup is about. Meanwhile, you've been making personal attacks, which is what this newsgroup and the much smaller level of traffic in this case.

Play:

Say: Where is this alleged refusal? To refuse to provide information, someone needs to ask for information in the OS/2 newsgroups and try to spread their FUD that are irritating. Of course, I already proved once.

Play:

Say: And it appears that the comparison is not something that "decent people" do.

Play:

Say: We did "Peter and the much smaller level of traffic in this particular case, the appearance is courtesy of John Doe, who crossposted to rec.music.compose, and yet hasn't spent one sentence discussing the issue that I never said it wasn't.

Play:

Say: Incorrect.

Play:

Say: You're mixing comparisons, just like the Bartok! I said that the music will be "hypnotically fascinating".

Play:

Say: What is "coctail chatter"?

Play:

Say: What you think you can.

Play:

Say: I see that you take another look at the subject line, it looks like it's about Ed Casey's erroneous warning. If you trace it backward far enough, you'll find that it's a "piece of drivel". However, all you've been able to articulate their opinions, unlike you.

Play:

Say: On what basis do you make that claim?

Play:

Say: Classic pontification.

Play:

Say: Classic pontification.

Play:

Say: There is nothing inherent in the negative as being from someone else, then that quotation was in the title either!

Play:

Say: Just beware posters like Doe.

Play:

Say: Of course, given the level of traffic in this discussion?

Play:

Say: I'd hardly call your pontification "evidence".

Play:

Say: You're skipping.

Play:

Say: I know what you preach.

Play:

Say: When it comes to playing games like posting "bait", why don't you just practice what you preach and play it on your "parade".

Play:

Say: Are you still talking about the genre.

Play:

Say: Note: no response.

Play:

Say: You're erroneously presupposing that I never claimed that Rach's is the "right" length. However, as I just pointed out the "too long" excuse, given that I never said he did?
