Si600 Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 (edited) How about this; we each post a note, wait until there is a good number of posts and then put up our interpretation of what we get? Rules: 1 One note per post 2 No double posts, wait until someone else has posted, but you can post the same note 3 When playing, any pitch goes but the notes must be in order posted 4 You can play in any time and rhythm you like, if you want to do it all in sixteenths that's up to you Any takers? Bearing in mind that I am the death of posts so you'll all ignore me anyway but I'll start with D Edited October 29, 2012 by Si600 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a composer who did very odd stuff was he called Schoenberg or something, some of it sounded like scary incidental music in films [/quote] Studied Serialism at uni as part of 20th century music(art not pop). Though very interesting and it's ultimately unsatisfying. Schoenberg was interested in cotiuing the canon of germanic composition Mozart,beethoven,Wagner, Mahler etc. He felt that tonal has reached its peak and it couldn't be taken any further so developed his 12 tone rows and serialism. He was a bit of a nob but a genius. he also wrote a giant book about music theory which is interesting and difficult. He also put himself in rivalry with Stravinsky who was actually taking Tonal music further mainly through changes to rhythmic ideas, time signatures and orchestration. Who'd a thought a German and Russioan could have been rivals in the early 20th century! Stockhausen is also a serialist composer, another nutter. He believes he's from another galaxy. He wrote a piece called Gruppen for three orchestra's playing in different time signatures and tempo's. http://youtu.be/mqvlrphkGAU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassTractor Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 As to Schoenberg, he broke his own rules and would exchange a theoretical note with one that sounded more musical to his ears. As far as I know, he never admitted this. Same goes for Xenakis, BTW, and he never admitted on doing so. best, bert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
