at 9.40 the sordino falls off one note short before it should've been removed

Whacked

[@jonasbaes3914]

It's very interesting that Associate Dean Melissa Smey refers to Lachenmann as a "living composer of classical music..."

[@dzordzszs]

What is unusual abut the statement?

[@jonasbaes3914]

@Džordžsżs I didn't say it was 'unusual', I said it was interesting...do you understand the difference between my statement and your assumption?

[@dzordzszs]

@@jonasbaes3914 Then what is interesting about the statement?

[@jonasbaes3914]

@@dzordzszs do you want lessons in contemporary music discourse? I can't give you them here. Perhaps you should enroll in one of my classes, hahaha! And this matter is not even at the heart of the discourse...

[@dzordzszs]

@@jonasbaes3914 He is literally alive and composes classical music. What about the statement would promote interest? It is just true. What you said is akin to somebody saying "It is interesting that this agricultural worker called an apple a red fruit." I was curious if there was anything notable which I wasn't aware of, which incited your statement.
