Then you don't know the history of his career. Look into it and be surprised! He'd done pieces that make this one look tame, especially (mainly) prior to the year 2000.

PS - what's more surprising is YNZ doing this repertoire. In Philly his concert programs are extremely tame, even by Philly standards.

Have you seen his compositions?

@@JosephOzielComposer Are you asking OP or me? And whose compositions are you referring to? Hamelin's or Turnage's?

@@ejb7969 I was referring to the OP about hamelin’s compositions

Believe it or not, this is the second version. Yeah I believe a lot of those clef choices were mistakes lol

Wow! Surprising. There must be something I'm missing. Turnage 100% knows what he's doing.@@JosephOzielComposer

Crazy software behavior? Maybe edited by Sing-GPT?

Yeah. Probably deleted clefs

Thank you!

I have not heard of it. I will check it out!

@@JosephOzielComposer I bought it a couple of years ago at a - more or less - reduced price, these publications are pretty expensive usually. It gives an overview of possibilities concerning algorithms like cellular automata and fractals and such. The composers who use all these techniques, I still have to explore.😊 I also noticed that Neil Sloan, mathematician, of the OEIS, has put his sequences on music, a bit like you did here. Anyway, all the best.

oh wow this sounds really interesting. i will try to get the book, or possibly find it online. Thank you!@@christophedevos3760

Thank you! Ligeti was, in fact, against using pure math and science in his music. He instead preferred to be inspired by aspects of it, such as the neverending way of fractals, and their patterns in the fourth movement of his piano concerto

​@@JosephOzielComposerindeed.

Thank you! I used the library MidiUtil, which allows me to generate midi files from python code

@@JosephOzielComposer I see. 😊

yes. very, very much :)

Your cat must be an incredible composer.

I’m pretty sure it’s coincidental lol

I’m more of a ligeti fan

Aww, little Johann Kari Baldursson here shitting on Benjamin. Having been a pupil of Geroge, I can guarantee you'd never win a single argument against him. Calling this "random noise" says everything about you; that is, you have no idea what you're talking about.

​@@JosephOzielComposerWhy not block that asshole (real name Johann Kari Baldursson)?

@@philipconnelly1505 I bet. I am not a fan of George Benjamin, but I appreciate his craft. What you say about "never win a single argument against him" is so accurate, not only for George Benjamin, but for the overall British circle of composers. I had the opportunity to witness - these Brits are always so incredibly sharp - and absolutely no BS. Nothing slides

What a typical, WIM-hateful comment 😃

He was close to 90 when it was composed lol

coincidence...? 🤣@@JosephOzielComposer

lol might be@@B-eSCH

Thank you!

@@JosephOzielComposer Thank you for making it.

Thank you!

@@JosephOzielComposer -- Remarkable detail and complexity! Where did you learn such Annotation? What were you thinking? BRAVO from Mexico!

@steveegallo3384 i was inspired by ligeti, mainly his Kammerkonzert. As for notation, I have to thank some friends, also thank you

This isn't my performance, but it is true that this piece is difficult rythmically

Given the fact that this is a solo piece, my solution would be to just approximate it. Even amongst an audience of professional musicians, hardly anyone would notice or care that you didn't get the rhythm exactly right. When it comes to modernist music, there are composers like Messiaen, Ligeti, and Reich, whose music requires absolute rhythmic precision. This piece is not among them.
