A correspondent asks, “Have you ever attempted endings for any of numerous ‘unfinished symphonies’? 8216;Fraid not. Symphonic writing gives me great bother, as I do not think well texturally like that, though not for want of trying (see next ‘graf). Very hard, even for someone who does, to do a good pastiche of a really good orchestrator (Mahler, Elgar, &c.). Thespis; or, The Gods Grown Old. Posted in Musica ficta.

Fall Cleaning | HumezMythSongs

https://nickhumez.wordpress.com/2010/08/06/fall-cleaning

Just another WordPress.com site. Expect, when I’m seventy, a frenzy of throwing things out,. For then I’ll presumably know (as best one can know. From a lifetime’s accumulated wisdom, or at least what. Passes), that no poor graduate student will go. Rootling through my files to squeeze out a dissertation. For a doctorate, a tenure-track job at a small state college,. Getting cited (assuming his thesis garners publication. By a comparatively respectable scholarly press). Sing it out, every minimalist!

Just another WordPress.com site. Some jolly nonsense on a fine fall afternoon. I left my gazebo. For downtown Toledo;. The sun having set,. The moon pale as a moth. Once saw its albedo. Through birdcatchers’ net. Raised by signals from Thoth. About which the reader. May read, if he’s eager. In Schwaller de Lubitsch,. The Temple of Man. Carl Larsson was Sweder. But Edvard was Grieger,. While Rubik was cubish. One does what one can.). If zebras were ponies. And beggars wore posies. O’er seagirt Nahant.

Xylophobia | HumezMythSongs

https://nickhumez.wordpress.com/2014/08/03/xylophobia

Just another WordPress.com site. My friend says she can’t understand why Midwesterners hate trees,. Cutting down the twenty-year spruce, the century oak. Or, failing that, to unlimb them, like the Melos Aphrodite. My wife is likewise vehement on the subject. Our municipal electric company hacks away branches. Anywhere close to their wires, with all the abandon. Of reckless hormone-inflamed teenagers at drive-ins. Bugs infest open scars, hastening the process:. Is it our trans-Alleghenian cultural memory,.

On skunks: New England white-on-black,. Contrariwise on Erie’s shore). While quaintly bobbing front to back. And side to side, at two foot four. By contrast, Jeeves at six foot plus. As smoothly played by Stephen Fry). Seems scarcely risible to us. Save as he saves, by ruses sly,. Young Wooster, who’s supremely dim. Had I a valet, I might wish.
