I was noticing that Ustvolskaya's whole output, or parts, could be done by any number of committed amateurs. Satie. Cage.

There is a recording of Alan Hovhaness' Symphony #23 "Ani" for band, with the composer leading two high-school bands. 8)

I'm keen to do Henning recordings.

so how do we make that happen?

I've got a digital multitracker + mics

need

church/acoustic space

performers

time


of course,... I JUST sayin', haha




BUT MY POINT WAS- can't MANY people record either Satie, or Cage, or some other, relatively easy TO PLAY music that is needed in the Repertoire of Discographies?

That's why I brought up Ustvolskaya. Her Discography is apparently not up to snuff- and couldn't some local yokel make a coup by recording her--- let's just say it turns out greeeat- it would be an instant classic!

Wouldn't it be great if a "homemade" recording gets Nominated... or Wins?????
