LOVE IT !!!!!

Subtract God, the Creator and Arranger of the universe from your world, and all you have is random noise. Master a few ostentatious tricks, and you can be the equal of Alton, Albert, and Igor!

Thanks for this video. I am reminded how very much I loathed my classes in 12-tone “music.”

(Hated the Prof, too. Mr. “I was at Kent State” elderly hippie.)

12 tone - the delightful music that makes me want to scratch my ears out.

About ten tears ago, Robert Conrad, as owner of WCLV, Cleveland's classical radio station and radio home of the Cleveland Orchestra established a foundation that ensures that WCLV will remain a classical station in perpetuity, as a way to prevent the inevitable fate of so many classical radio stations across the country that have been bought out and forced to change format. Kudos to him.

Also, its a real good listen on the net...

Somebody observed that all the modern composers that would have carried on in the traditional classical formats, (symphonies, concertos etc.) are all writing music for films. Some of the stuff here might make good film music.

I create experimental electronic music every bit as odd (or as bad) as this stuff and I have been told that some of it would be good in a film soundtrack.

I’m not generally a fan of 12 tone music - had to learn my comp professor’s Piano Sonata in college.

There are examples of listenable serial music however. Keith Emerson (of Emerson Lake & Palmer) wrote a Piano Concerto, the first movement of which is based on a tone row.

It’s actually not too bad with the sound turned off...;-)

(That said, I do own the Speakers Corner re-issue 3 LP box set of the Mercury Living Presence recordings of just these composers. They sure made great recordings (technically) back in those days. Puts all the current digicrap to shame.)
