This post made me have a listen to his fantaisie for Pno & Orch. What a perfectly concise work. It has no rambling "filler" passages and dead spots.

Quote from: tpaloj on Friday 17 May 2024, 07:24But I think we're getting close to submitting any printed notation to such software and having it produce a reliable, decent quality audio rendition without too much user input at all.If you are saying generating reality-quality other than midi-quality performance, then there won't be miserable circumstances like Ulrich Leykam "conducting" literally his own "Bayreuth Digital Orchestra" to accompany Naxos-Marco Polo's S. Wagner Sonnenflammen production.
Quote from: TerraEpon on Friday 17 May 2024, 01:09I remember there was some experimenting with computer composed classical-esque music in the early 90s. This really isn't a new thing.Yeah, David Cope is a big name among them. Centaur published recordings of his computer-composed music, as well as 39 volumes of Consortium to Distribute Computer Music (CDCM) recordings with compositions produced by many people. That was many years ago

Quote from: Ilja on Wednesday 27 March 2024, 18:35from the late 1850s (IMSLP) to 1882/1883 (German Wikipedia)There's the problem of giving a composition date or a publication date. I think for most of his compositions, the dates from 1880s and 1890s are publishing dates.
Quote from: eschiss1 on Saturday 23 March 2024, 02:42Back when I was attempting to compose, I remember hearing one of Beethoven's cello works in concert, had never heard it before, rondo tune stuck. I soon forgot who wrote it and some years later (just) started writing the opening of a piano quintet on a very similar theme, thinking it mine (after checking it wasn't by the composers who it brought to mind. Then I heard the Beethoven on the radio and that was that. So yep.I've experienced that, too. I unconsciously took the opening phrase of Halm's Symphony, slightly adjusted it, and used it as the theme in a piano sonatina. Fortunately not too long after that I realized where I got that tune from.
Quote from: eschiss1 on Thursday 21 March 2024, 03:08I have the score of symphony no.3 in D-flat major (finale in, and ends in, in C# minor) on my table borrowed from U. Houston.The third one is really amusing. It borrows from Schoenberg's Pelleas a clarinet passage not long into Mov I, and the beginning of Mov II is entirely from Busoni's PC.
