The death of bourgeois modernism. Even Stockhausen came to realise that slamming together special effects for their own sake was limiting and limited. Won't stop the pompous, arrogant pretentious morons who worship at the Adorno shrine however. Just pushes them even further into the aesthetic wilderness. Simplicity of expression does not equate with simplicity of experience and neither does complexity or expression equate with the opposite..
@saschamuecke Not that happy, perhaps light hearted and tender but a bit sad. Thats what I get of it. At least you can listen to 'clerical' modern music and finding it diabolic.
hodges is a deft, careful, impassioned ,romanticist and imaginative exponent of Finnissy & others. This is so well played. the tone no matter how many minor textural changes is conveyed throughout. Hodges is a dream. Finnissy is the UNIVERSE!!!
Is it possible to print this music on your computer.I want to study Finnissy strategies of composition. Serialism is dead but his polytonality and atonlaity is what I want to get good at! He and Toovey rock my world. Robert A. Wilson and Ballard need to be set to music.This music can do it!

@John11inch Oh how sublime Dahling!! You must seriously miss the lack of sonic effects for sonic effects sake though surely. Adorno would have dismissed this as kitsch and you should do likewise.
Enlightening.

The inherent melodic material, combined with Finnissy's love for silly polyrhythms, almost gives this a sort of Scriabinistic feel.
