I wrote yesterday about how Lady GaGa’s persona is essentially an imitation, philosophically and stylistically of Andy Warhol, even though the artists expressed themselves through different medium. At the end I made a broad conclusion that, as a culture, we are failing to move beyond Post-Modernism. I thought that I should explain more about why […] Today’s pop music, and more generally; pop culture, fashion, etc. seems to be a huge throw back to the 80’s and subsequently the late 60’s early 70’s. That pop-cultural history gets reinvented should be no surprise as being steeped in our ontological past is just part of being human. Think about the recent popularization of […] I wrote part of this piece at the end of last year. It, like the last movement of my Viola Sonata, is in a semetrical mode consisting of the pitches, C, Db, Eb, E, F#, G#, A# (Bb). I feel it is very different from most of what I have written before, though still considerably […] More standard violin rep. Sonata 3 on Wikipedia Two of these or Russian editions.

When you hear other composers stereotyping “french” music they often get something that is imitative of Fauré’s music, delicate but not […] The Brahms Cello Sonatas are part of the standard cello repertoire (duh!). I’ll post the score along with what Wikipedia has to say about the works. […] I just got finished playing an awesome work by my good friend Dylan Glatthorn. Dylan is a native of St. Petersburg, Florida and a fellow senior at New York University with me. He is the winner of the Alan Menken Scholarship here and I believe he has been working on the musical since he’s been […] These short works are very pleasant little dittos that are fun to sight read.
