That has been contested by some the author. He lacks rudimentary attainments in his field.

Hi Nico, just heard you are coming to Sydney for the Vivid festival. Don’t know much detail except something about a new piece. Can’t wait to see you! Regards, Johnny.

Well I will check the Ades out but I never have that big a fan of his stuff. Well crafted but strangely it sounds a little too much like another composer. So far listening to the Ades Violin Concerto and I will say it is one of the best things I have heard from him from what I know of his stuff – but man I already hear a bit of Ligeti, touches of Neilsen in the first 2 minutes – and man Ades loves his sequences! Anyway, thanks for the recommendation of the Ades.

Yasss! I love the Adés Violin Concerto. Strangely enough, it was actually one of the first modern violin concertos that I was exposed to during my early High School days. It scared the shit out of me, but now I just love it 2 death.

I’m still trying to recover from the ugliness of ‘gotten underway’…

“but its events are often too sprawling and uneven, or else too tiny and uneven”

This event’s too big! This event’s too small! This event is juuuuust riiiiiight. Why doesn’t he just forget about the size and say the events are uneven? (In size? In quality? In variety of style? In instrumentation?)

New music reportage has become rather annoying of late…
