Comments on: Five Days Out https://nicomuhly.com/news/2011/five-days-out/ The official website of the New York-based composer Nico Muhly. Tue, 21 Jun 2011 12:25:21 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.5 By: Michael https://nicomuhly.com/news/2011/five-days-out/comment-page-1/#comment-27639 Tue, 21 Jun 2011 12:25:21 +0000 http://nicomuhly.com/?p=2851#comment-27639 Since I cannot be There for the opening, I contented myself with waking early this morning to download Seeing is Believing, which I thought I had known from this site and the earlier Guardian streaming. But the sonics on this disc revealed a whole new piece – still a masterpiece, of course, but all the clouds have disappeared from the night sky. Congratulations, and best wishes for Friday.

Is. Happening. “I always think that an oratorio is the time to be judgey, and an opera is for the audience to navigate for themselves.”

Child. You amaze. Blessings upon you and your production!!!

Maybe? That diphthong in “there” is tricksy.

Can’t wait to hear the new CD as well. As a percussionist I’ve always thought of tenutos as meaning a note has a certain “weight” to it.
