purlieu Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 Man, Paul Bley and now Boulez...that sucks so bad Boulez is like Jean Luc Godard in that It was strange that such a mythic figure was still alive during our time (Godard is still alive, I think) Completely, seeing him turn up on television conducting was very strange, a figure of another time. I used his second piano sonata as the basis of an ambient track some years back. Wonderful works, those sonatas, my favourites of his. So utterly sparse in obvious meaning.

pcock Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 cant say im a fan of his piano sonatas. they really dont reach me and my understanding in any other form than sounding like structured wrong notes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purlieu Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 To me they always had a certain atmosphere that no other serial works have ever managed to replicate. I appreciated them even more when I started teaching myself serial composition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
