Advantages: MacGregor's chameleon-like arrangements render every piece interesting, appealing. Disadvantages: She remains in obscurity in the US.
demanded royalties for use of Cage's four-and-a-half minutes of *silence*, a situation I found extremely hilarious for its absurdity about the ownership of silence. (For the story, see end of article for link.)
I myself have been hardly curious about contemporary music--until recently, that is, thanks to the tireless efforts of progressive, innovative, classically-trained (Oxford) British pianist Joanna MacGregor (b. 1959). The doors to new music have been flung wide for this listener. As have those to jazz, fusion, ethnic and world music?the kinds that don't necessarily make it to your Putumaya world music discs--and take up negligible space in the classical music racks.
Released on SoundCircus in 2001, PLAY represents the wide-ranging musical interests of the pianist, and what a fascinating and broad selection are they! From ...
I played this not long after playing GTA3 as I was hoping for something of a similar style. Bad mistake to make.
Driver is exactly what is says. It's purely driving to certain points to complete your mission.
