24 Hours of Ferneyhough



A time-lapse video of someone listening to the complete recordings of Brian Ferneyhough. The comments on YouTube are hilarious -- even someone else listening to this music makes people mad.

Me, I can get mad looking at a score. But the result is surprisingly listenable. You can almost always tell where you've come from and where you're going, at least in the short term. It's music for microscope ears. And, lo! A serenade!

Which isn't to say that 24 hours of it wouldn't change you.

Hysterical down

The OH is not available for the moment being. Either Archive.org is having a problem or the files have been removed (?) -- I'm looking into alternate places to put them. Hang tight.

Hystericals

Brad and I are excited that Alex Ross mentioned our EP in his Book tour diary 3. Thanks Alex! I'm looking forward to reading his book -- as soon as school lets out and I can get on with my education.
