  • @fremsley001 he missed :P

  • Dim the lights, put on some Birtwistle and read H.P. Lovecraft... That's an experience!

  • I wonder if his scores are difficult to read. Antiphonies is great.Would love to see wht page looks like.

  • They did not get the plot for this out of "Baby and child care" by Dr. Benjamin Spock (no, not from the "Star Trek"). This looks very promising right off the bat, try putting it on in the U.S., well, maybe not, kinda too advanced... Has this been recorded?...the music holds up way better than Shostakovich' "Lady...".

  • At 2:39 did he mean to throw the doll into the bin first time, and missed?

  • Britten absolutely refused to pay for the choc-ices during the interval. The fucker.

  • Yes, it is quite catchy, isn't it?

  • Like Carter he seems to have given a bit of a neo-classical polish to Varese, but emphasised different aspects of the Frenchman than E.C. I admire what he has accomplished.

  • This the my favourite 'song' among the whole opera.

  • iconic..
