This must be an experience to in the concert hall . Can be austere or menacing . but could it be Disney like fun. It made me think of Ed Geisen cutting stuff" in his workshop on a quiet country night . Unrelenting is that damn cutting sound . This is horrific but it sounds like an old world without the technology of today . Like a nightmare carnival death ride in the 1950's in black & white. What we hear tells more about whats in our minds I suppose . I want to like it for the wrong reasons .Doesn't matter she has a doctorate - knows a great deal , has thought a great deal and met others in her field and Im sure she's got commisios and grants and sipping cocktails with smarty academic types on a friday night while Im typing on a computer alone in my bed .. . Fure knows what she's doing .I gotta go check out beat Furer. I adore his stuff .Hadnt looked or heard his music in a while !

beauty

[@straightarrow372]

I feel naughty. Last week I spoke with someone who was a more traditional composer who felt that modern, experimental music was very bad. And yet, for reasons I cannot explain, I like it. He would have had me believe, I think, that it was not ok to like it.

[@ScoreFollower]

Yep! Keep being dirty 😉 If somebody is telling you that you should not like a whole category of music like that, it’s often more a reflection of their insecurities than anything else

[@SandroMussida]

bravo

[@allegroschoolofmusic4424]

Strange that this kind of music still passes for avant-garde. These sounds were dated 40 years ago.

[@alpdurmaz8306]

Show us an example of today's music then...

[@Carlos-ro6jo]

Said "Allegro SCHOOL OF MUSIC".

[@arvidtom]

I really don't understand why on earth people would still want to write this boring, ugly, academic, terribly dated pseudo-avant-guard kind of drivel that could have been written in the 1970s. Seems like the composers on this channel and all their followers still live in this academic ivory tower remote from the real world in which this kind of music lost all its relevance and actuality.

Just a few responses:
• "...boring, ugly, academic..." This again, *yawn*
• "...pseudo-avant-guard..." *garde
• How are the two old white dudes featured on your channel (C. Rouse, & J. Adams) supposedly more relevant? Don't they have 'ivory tower' degrees too?

[@arvidtom]

A bit pompous that you've decided I'm "not educated about music" simply because your views don't match mine, don't you think? (In fact, I've studied composition and music theory so I'm not ignorant about modern music.) OK, maybe I shouldn't have called Fure's work 'drivel', but it is a fact that her music relies on a kind of European modernist aesthetic which has dominated the modern music scene and academia (almost aggressively so) since the 1950s and which, by now, we can fairly call 'old fashioned' or 'dated', not to say obsolete or worn-out. If you went to a modern music festival in Europe during the 1970s (there were plenty of influential festivals back in those days, Darmstadt, Warsaw, Donaueschingen, etc.) all pieces sounded like this...(atonal music relying on sound effects, extended techniques, etc.) I just don't understand how young composers in the 2010s could still feel the urge to continue to write this kind of music ( the kind of music which, moreover, turned classical composition into a cultural ghetto during the second half of the 20th century...)

[@ConradKehn]

'Cultural Ghetto.' That's pretty awesome. Can I use that as the title of my next avant-garde extended technique loaded derivative academic sounding piece?

[@irvcigarbroker6073]

I'm excited I discovered your work.

[@MicheleoTuTo]

Boring my ass.
