To: tuning Subject: loooong post from you-know-who Message-ID: My goodness. This bit of self-justification was a trifle long even by Brian's standards. In light of his obvious debt to the Bard in his "But Brutus says I am a raving crank, and Brutus is an honorable man" motif, I'm put in mind of a slightly different quotation from our literary canon: "Methinks the gentleman doth protest too much." Speaking of canons (loose and otherwise), I'm surprised that nobody said anything about Brian's recent and somewhat hamfisted analysis of the notion of canons (musical and literary and otherwise). I guess I'll throw something together which might provide a slightly more graduated approach to the notion of canon studies; at the very least, it'll be a good topic for dinner conversation with my beloved.... With regards, Gregory _ I would go to her, lay it all out, unedited. The plot was a simple one, paraphrasable by the most ingenuous of nets. The life we lead is our only maybe. The tale we tell is the must that we make by living it.

He lives up on the Oregon coast and doesn't have email, but I have a mailing address for him if anyone wants to contact him directly. There may be other choral composers listed in the xenharmonic diskography in the Mills ftp site. --John
