No questions, but very glad to see Trout Mask Replica up there.

Weclome to the avantagrde machine,

I guess you didn't get your wish. People are still posting on this site. Really, your post was a liittle modest, don't you think? :wink.

[rilex]

you need to seriously reconsider your greatest classical compositions.

I wouldn't compare, for example, a string quartet to, say, a symphony.

Do you count minimalism?
Should Reich be mentioned?
Debussy?
Bach?

Where are your classical song cycles?
Schoenberg's Pierrot Lunaire. Schubert's Wintereisse.

How about Chopin? Opus 25's twelve Etudes come to mind.

Arvo Part's Tabula Rosa comes to mind as well.

It's a crime not to mention Messiaen's Quartet for the End of Time.

You could have included Stockhausen or Cage if you want more intellectual things.

Stravinsky is good, but I prefer the Firebird.

thanks for the lists, but you should include artist names to be clearer.

Bold statement for a topic. Mind you, some posts I leave seem to end topics... Hmm...

like any genre there's wiggle room, grey areas and general wishy-washiness. What seperates from other rock and makes it MATH-ROck is the atypical guitar rhythms.
