2020-04-22 01:58:22 +0000 UTCIt made me think of the “Threnody” right away, too. Although - admittedly - I only know that piece from Twin Peaks: The Return.

2020-04-20 19:17:16 +0000 UTCI just want to note that George Crumb's sheet music is idiosyncratic and gorgeous, and well worth looking at, even if you don't like his music!

2020-04-20 17:55:36 +0000 UTCAm I correct that Crumb was writing this during the Vietnam War? If so, I mean, I get it. But I now have to coax my cat back out from under the bed, where he hid once this started playing....

2020-04-20 15:39:47 +0000 UTCIt was inspired by the Vietnam War so it has horrific origins for sure.

2020-04-20 12:46:05 +0000 UTCSounds like it was written in the hopes of making it the soundtrack to a supernatural horror flick.

2020-04-20 12:06:48 +0000 UTCBlack Angels is awesome...if you’re in just the right mood. I saw Kronos Quartet perform it live, which was pretty cool.

2020-04-20 11:43:31 +0000 UTCYup, totally #TeamBridget on that one.
Jason Hammack
2020-04-20 11:17:46 +0000 UTC...yeah, I’m with Bridget on this one. Reminds me of my dad’s Eliot Carter album, which he bought because he liked the cover art.
