FHG a composer? Ah well, that explains his peculiarly entrenched position against Ravel's masterly orchestration of Mussorgsky, and the composer always knows best attitude that he never took too much trouble to conceal!Originally posted by jayne lee wilson View PostComment

Fhg might create some major masterpiece and we'd never know.... (he might enjoy that of course....

Indeed.Originally posted by french frank View Post
I can relate to the saving of time aspect, but that only works if one really has something better, or more important to do. Some studies of forums such as these have suggested that they do have a social "benefit" (to some) so they are not just for information exchange. I visit forums (this one mostly) for both purposes.
I can understand that writing music might take some time, unless one is a composer such as Mozart or Rossini. Good luck to Ferney with his own works.
In the meantime, apart from fhg's departure, it's good to see that you are still watching - occasionally. Best wishes - and to Ferney too.Comment

It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.Comment

Sometimes, the best disguise is no disguise. Perhaps, he's Brian Ferneyhough, posting from a safe distance in California. If so, his disguise is his Mastery of the New Complexity, Jayne.Originally posted by jayne lee wilson View PostOh God, so I still don't know.... please don't worry, Ed, my dear friend.........these anonymous posters!
