Many thanks for sharing it.<br /><br />-BrianAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8624282421125812337.post-10819270833628253892020-02-04T00:34:49.688+01:002020-02-04T00:34:49.688+01:00JZ, in going through the works of some of the bett...JZ, in going through the works of some of the better known 'avant-garde' composers over the last two weeks or so you have picked quite a few pieces that I had not heard before, or not heard in the recordings you have chosen (including this one).

The super intelligent have made it possible to survive knowing nothing, and thinking you're smart because you're operating a tech device.
