  • i often like carter's music, but i also realize his music will never appeal to a lot of people. this is quite accessible for carter.

  • What music do you normally listen to? -jhg12989

  • @jhg12989

    What interaction are you talking about?

    Counterpoint??? Maybe I'm too old-fashion, but what about harmony?

  • @lmaxim doesn't sound too random to me.

  • Listen to the counterpoint and the different intervals formed by the brass. Listen to the way the three players interact with one another.

  • OMG!!! Does anyone call this music? This random set of sounds creates no more then a simple noise.

  • BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • audiences in previous time went to things like opera's and ballets because they knew exactly what they were going to get. Its like saying "i want to watch an action movie" and going to the store a picking one out. So when The Rite of Spring comes out, people are shocked because it is not what they expected and not what a ballet *should* be.

    It has been almost 100 years since Webern and Schoenberg started with serial and atonal music.... and has it ever been widely accepted at all? No.

  • a modern audience is no more or less open-minded than audiences of the past have been. while quality can not be truly measured, one's opinion upon first hearing has very little to do with what will be considered a classic in 100 years from now. i personally am not sure if i like the music or not, but as for what will be liked in the future, only time will tell.

  • The comparison of this music to Stravinsky is absurd. Stravinsky was a true genius, and yes, many of his pieces were not received well when they first premiered, however they are in fact masterpieces. This piece and others like it are not.

    We must also remember that Stravinsky's 'RIte of Spring' audience and today's audience are drastically different, and even though a modern audience is much more open minded, this type of music has not found any mass appeal.
