Why say something in 10 mintues when i can say it in 5? This was the question of my CC task. Because its more economic and interesting. If you can tell people as much interesting information in a short ammount of time, without totally bombarding them with information, you keep their interest and dont waste their time. This is one of my philopsophies. Things only need to be as long as they need to be. This is one quarm i have with avant-garde music. I wouldn't be so disinterested in it if it wasn't always so long. I understand that in many of these piece, time is a factor of the artistic outcome. Phillip Glass's minimal organ works is a good example of this. Playing with ostinato and the listener hearing different patterns in this over time. But i find that a lot of this music is for the artist, not the listener, which is why these pieces are so long. Maybe i just dont get it, but lengthening these peices arnt making them more appealing.
