It fills me with quiet glee that dudes are getting into verbal fisticuffs over Youtube over Edgard Varese

the hi hat is more difficult to hear if you're a drummer. the high tones are the first ones to go.

That would explain a few things.

So like, Boulez ... good, bad or just the guy with the gun?

[minniethemoocha]

Boulez is challenging. He is going for something precise. It's not pretty music at all, and finding the beauty in it takes time. He's working out problems of structure vs. expression -- a philosophical problem as well as an engineering problem. I don't know a lot about it yet, but find it pretty interesting.

All I have to say is thanks for reminding me of that TP scene. Audrey's dance and the accompanying music has become so iconic.

You know what's funny...the hi hat is what I hear most when I listen to Audrey's Dance. Azriel told me that was my theme song in college. :-)
