Footnotes

A few too many pieces which were little more than note-spinning, a few too many pieces which didn't sound composed, whose end the audience was aware of only because, not only had the players not been playing for a while, but they made a show of disengaging from their instruments.

These were impressions I recorded after an event from weeks and weeks ago. Just a note to myself that there are still people who, judging by the pieces they are able to get performed before an audience, have a knack for getting away with something. Part of the territory, since The Arts are all over the map, to be sure.
