RE: Basic intro (OT)



Title: RE: Basic intro (OT)

Which leads into another interesting question, to what extent do people
here think their music communicates or is intended to communicate? There
are many musicians who think music needs to have deep, complex meaning;
there are others who think music is just music, and who cares what it
says. There's no right or wrong answer on this, of course, but I'm
interested in people's positions with respect to their own music.



** i'm hoping to have some sort of communion between emotion, spirit and intellect whatever that all really mens). mostly, i want to avoid boring people.

at a concert of a composition i did that employs a lot of improv, i had two divergent reactions to the piece:

one was that there was a story, a narrative flow, that one person really followed and was drawn along by.

the other was another person saying that there wasn't enough narrative thread.
