I got this disc and I just want to say one word: WowIf he records OC like this piece it would be unimaginable. Listening to it would be like: "Ok, I just experienced everything there is to experience, I could die now."
hey ahinton do you hire people to record sorabji's stuff?
The short answer is no. The reason for that answer is that I am not a record company; artists are usually hired by record companies to record music.Best,Alistair
cool what about a long answer?
I am sorry if I disappoint you, but the long answer is precisely the same as the short one, as I had hoped my elaboration of the reason for the latter might have made clear. Let me elucidate our rôle further, if that helps. We certainly encourage such performances and recordings, just as we encourage the creation of the new editions of Sorabji's music that make such performances and recordings possible. That said, as we have made clear already, we do not actually engage atists to make such recordings - the record companies do that, sticking to their rôle while we adhere to ours.In the hopefully unlikely event that you may need any further clarification of this situation, please do not hesitate to ask.Best,Alistair
i gotcha my reply was more sarcasm than anything.
I had assumed as much; perhaps you might like to enlighten us all as to why. I hope nevertheless that - especially as you write "i gotcha" - you got the drift of what we wrote and understood it properly. Do enjoy the recordings!Best,Alistair
why? HHHHMMMM....cuz I find humor in small things. lIke the fact that you said short answer is no and then proceeded to explain it hence making your short answer quite long. Not Bernhard answer long, but long enough. Just found humor in it.
