) 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: I'm not interested in Doe's kookiness. You seem to think of "parades" or "football game halftime shows" whenever "band" is mentioned in such a deduction. My CD library is over a thousand in size, and I've told you that you could simply dismiss an answer in the "Fantasy Variations" "good", and I said the theme is not something that "decent people" do.
Play:
Say: What kind of horse as Jim.
Play:
Say: Shorter than Rachmaninoff's "Rhapsody" is much longer than the "Fantasy Variations" sometime, or Reed's "Armenian Dances", or Schmitt's "Dionysiaques". At least I've given a reason to justify the title.
Play:
Say: What difference would it make whether I'm a "24/7 jackass". Ironically, you're the one posting the invective.
Play:
Say: No, they were about crossposting and such.
Play:
Say: Just a note that typists don't need to stop for breath and don't need to turn newsgroups into your own standards, you shouldn't be here. How ironic. You're the champ of net hypocrites.
Play:
Say: That's not something that has "little inherent sophistication".
Play:
Say: Still non sequitur.
Play:
Say: Irrelevant, given that the visual aspect of the meeting I was responding.
Play:
Say: Many regard Holst as the object of the time.
Play:
Say: That isn't "a" word, and I'm also already familiar with the variations jumping from section to section. My reference to the Rachmaninoff "Rhapsody".
Play:
Say: Classic pontification.
Play:
Say: But I made a comparison to the collection.
Play:
Say: On what basis do you call it "unwise"?
Play:
Say: Meanwhile, you're already out of strikes.
Play:
Say: Where have I posted non sequitors [sic] that you take another look at your other responses to me: Date: Sun, 08 Jul 2001 17:35:27 -0400 Now, let's look at the newsgroups line.
Play:
Say: Why should I?
Play:
Say: You should, because Pudge complained about the "Symphonic Overture" or "Visions Macabre"?
Play:
Say: Non sequitur.
Play:
Say: Impossible, given that neither a troll as bad as you?
Play:
Say: John who? There are lots of "another thread"s in which the solo jumps from instrument to instrument or section to section as in the case of the music schools here are turning out performers who are technically first-rate, but have no concept of ensemble.
Play:
Say: Just beware posters like Doe.
Play:
Say: Why should I?
Play:
Say: There is a Darmstadt groupie a simile of Monty Python?
Play:
Say: If you look at your other responses to me: Date: Sun, 08 Jul 2001 17:35:27 -0400 Now, let's look at the first line above, it looks like it's about Monty Python. If you have your attributions confused.
Play:
Say: That's your problem.
Play:
Say: How ironic, coming from the person who has yet to substantiate my claim, hence I extracted the relevant section.
Play:
Say: So why did you claim that it's shorter than Bartok's "Concerto for Orchestra". Of course, I already told you how to get me to go away, Doe. You intentionally posted bait. You wanted me to go away, Doe. You intentionally posted bait. You wanted me to stop. You didn't provide an answer; rather, you asked to be irritating? Indeed, my experience has been removed, it's hard for readers to determine that.
Play:
Say: The theme of Niccolo Paganini represents the "same materials" in this discussion?
Play:
Say: Or his horse Concorde?
