Salemosophy Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 No, it's not very original at all... Stockhausen did this, well, a LOT. So did Cage.. there's nothing original about this style of writing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salemosophy Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 No, it's not very original or crazy at all... Stockhausen did this, well, a LOT. So did Cage and many other 20th Century composers.. there's nothing original or crazy about this style of writing. Fixed. -------------- This whole thread is silly.

Kamen Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 One of the craziest things in composition I've done is that I haven't composed any serious atonal work yet. :toothygrin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pianoman216 Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 I once wrote a choir piece in Fbb. Turned out pretty crappy, but I still like the idea. I got an assignment in an early music theory class to write a solo melody line using only eighth notes. I was somewhat annoyed because the assignment was way too easy and I wanted more of a challenge so I wrote it in Ab harmonic minor with tons of ties and accidentals. My teacher glanced at it and gave me an A because he didn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom_Lynch Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 In a world where people have written quartets for 4 helicopters, someone wrote a quartet for helicopters or someone wrote a quartet for strings in helicopters? i googled it and only the strings in helicopters came up. if there really is a quartet for helicopters, that is f***ing awesome, and who wrote it?

Karlheinz Stockhausen did that he was trying to simulate the helicopters sound with a string quartet. Google his name also there are some videos on YouTube;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamen Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 ^ He likes accidentals. Helicopters are uninteresting. I am planning a quintet for F-15, F-16, F-18, F-117 and UFO. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Skye Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 Fbb? Come on. There's no reason anyone should ever choose to write a piece in even Fb unless you modulate to it, and even then I might just go to E. Fbb is just being silly.

Actually, he wanted it to be played in a space shuttle, but NASA rejected it, so he settled for helicopters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salemosophy Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 I've thought about writing a piece called 'Death in Space'... about 19 seconds of silence, then the lights in the auditorium go out. The end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferkungamabooboo Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Only if you pressurize the auditorium, then depressurize it rapidly at the end. Let's get some violence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
