Some more randomness:
Clarence Barlow's "Çogluotobusisletmesi", which I've heard about through this board.
(and yes, I did carry out a search to copy and paste it).
Globokar - Oblak Semen
Clarke - La Violenza Delle Idee
Strange Moments of Intimacy
Kagel - Die Mutation
When the panting STARTS
Oliveros - Horse sings from a cloud

I've always thought Francis Bacon's Three Screaming Popes is a wonderful title which might be borrowed for a particularly disturbing and psychologically harsh kind of music.

I like the title The Making of the Representative for Planet 8 though I realise it was a Doris Lessing novel before becoming an opera by Glass.

Liszt - Resignazione
This and some of the preceding posts might almost make me want to consider calling my next work "Piece no. forty-something" were it not for the fact that, were I to give so much as a split second's thought to such a notion, I'd immediately start to worry because "forty-+" must be too high a number so something had better be consigned to the shredder prontish... Best, Alistair |

György Kurtág: Messages of the Late Miss R V Troussova
Fabrice Fitch: Guinness I (half-pint)
Tangentially, John Adams supposedly wrote Alleluia Junction as he thought 'it was a case of a good title needing a piece', maybe this was a misguided decision?
Anyone got any other examples of 'good titles' with 'bad pieces'? (personally, I don't think the title was that good in the first place, so maybe it's well matched)

What's empirical about sound? You can't write an article about it in die Reihe, that's for sure.

Not, presumably, "to be sung" (sorry - there's another one!) by Ms Leonard (who has, incidentally, sung in M. Dusapin's work...) Best, Alistair |

Finnissy: Cosy Fannie's Tootsies
Wolpe: From Here on Farther
Hindemith: Berceuse for Piano (which isn't a berceuse at all, it's more like a minute of music to wake the dead) -- does that belong in the "Ironic titles" thread?
Schwehr: poco a poco subito
Blume: Domestic Words and Phrases
also fond of both knospend-gespaltener and abglanzbeladen, auseinandergeschrieben -- though both must be credited to Por Celain.
