Alright I admit it, I'm here because of Zappa.

@DimensionsofChange Now you get to see where he got some of his inspiration from. The Zappa connection is nothing to be ashamed of. Both Zappa and Varèse were great artists.

@DimensionsofChange It's call sarcasm, dickhead. i.e. I was joking. (seriously, a sense of humor is important in this day and age - try one out sometime and you'll see what I mean).

@CJandthebreakfast Yeah. I audiotaped a recording of Boulez w/the Chicago Symphony percussion many years ago...a GLORIOUS performance, but of course not on video. He seems to do well with the piece, though.

@DimensionsofChange It's so intriguing to hear the subtle influences in Zappa's work, influences which become more apparent the more Varèse you study. Zappa knew genius when he heard it; no surprise, as he may well have been one himself. I say, freak out proudly.
