  • Finnissy began his pianistic career playing on Wednesday evenings at the Tulse Hill Home for the Profoundly Deaf. He eventually disowned the "New Complexity" label that had attached itself to his music during the 70s and 80s, and in the 90s became a leading member of the "Making It Up As I Go Along" School. He is available for funerals and divorce court proceedings. In Who's Who, Finnissy lists his hobbies as "shouting at pigeons" and "humming an augmented fourth below my tinnitus".

  • I think my fingers just had a heart attack

  • Is it playable???

  • I think i heard a wrong note at 3:57

  • @tomekkobialka and probably sexy as fuckn;)

  • @fremsley001

    Wonderful repartee.

  • @SB87JB I mean all this stuff is doing is trying to produce "electronic sounds" through acoustic means. That is an aesthetic that is dating back nearly 60 years now. It's time we moved on.

  • @SB87JB Yes, but Stockhausen actually backed up the bullshit with measurable acheivments as did Nono and others that you mention. I don't think they are even fit to be mentioned alongside the likes of Ferney and Dillon.

  • @egapnala65 yeah i love stockhausen, xenakis, nono, babbitt, schaeffer... I just had trouble finding the newer avant garde stuff until i found these youtube channels. I'm sure these people are pretentious but Ive watched plenty of stockhausens lectures on electronic music and he basically said hes a new race of super human. I don't hold an artists personality against them because there's plenty of good and terrible artists with terrible personalities and delusions of grandeur.
