    A daring piece of music that works.


    Dave,
    may I ask you what exactly you find daring? Honestly I wouldn´t have thought of anything daring in this piece. But this may be because of my weird nature [:@] [[:|]] [*-)] [8-)]
    (A sincere question, b.t.w.)

    mathis,

    I can't get the short distance relationships going so don't worry.

    By daring I meant you made a lot of music out of octaves and rhythm and space. Also not tons of melody either. It takes a lot of skill and confidence to pull that off. You totally succeeded. Musically daring in my opinion.

    To be a musican is to have a weird nature. Just ask Paul and William: two premium examples in my opinion. I mean these guys are wacked: way way out there. You understand? Damaged, emotionally and mentally. Very angry also. They need help and I just don't know what to do.

    Please keep this between you and me.

    Wolfy,

    Sorry, but "damaged"? Excuse me? I don't think anyone reasonable would go that far. Though I have my doubts about someone who puts on one of those white powdered wigs every time he sits down at his MIDI keyboard. You need to take a little reality check, o.k.? This is the 20th century.

    Oh man, that feels good! Actually this was exactly my approach. Now I understand what you meant by daring and do agree. I had a good (ok, short) crisis in the middle of composing this because it didn´t work. Then I found the solution by introducing the snare part which turned it into a kind of snare concerto.

    Of course I will keep that for me, I swear! These poor chaps really need some good recovery. But what to do with these hopeless cases?

    Bests,

    Alright Benny,

    I am major pissed off!

    How did you know about the wig?

    I want answers.

    Paul told you right?

    Never trust the British.

    Amadeus

    P.S. He wears one too you know (but they all do over there.)

    mathis,

    Keep humoring them. Tell them they're special wonderful people and not to worry too much about things.

    Anything to keep the men in white jackets from coming round too often.

    Quite right Dave. Never trust the British. Mathis has a weird nature [[:|]] No! Really?

    Mathis can't recommend long distance relationships gentlemen! Oh Mathis, really now. I've been having a long distance relationship for years (and we live in the same house). Can't beat it. [H] Just kidding Mathis, don't start worrying again. [:P]

    More music Mathis please!

    Bests (I love saying that btw)

    Oops, sorry, it was Dietz who uses HTH. Maybe he lives in the 22nd century?

    Don't want to split hairs here but the post in question (we'll call it "The Post of the Century") appears to be signed by one: Benny H. I can't see how that particular composer could insist on it being the 21st century.

    It's the 18th century you idiots!

    I appreciate that support Wolfy, but you really need to check your calendar. You and Mr. Wells are seriously out of touch.

    Concerned,

    I'll have you both know that HG's wife was a distant relative of mine! And not talking about Mary Steenbergen either!

    Paul,

    Really now? Did HG know about all these going's on with you and his wife?

    So Mathis, are you combining your music with other media? You seemed to hint at that though I lost track of where that was. I said something about that didn't I? Or did I... [*-)]:
