I could not hit Spotify quickly enough. I am starting with "L’Amour de Loin". First "song" in and it is fairly comtemporary classical.

I am just an amateur musician and I am amazed at those with those that could hear such minute details.

I can recognize a bad ensemble from a good one, but such detail at that level is simply amazing

    She started composing with a PDP-10 supercomputer.
    In one work from that time, “Vers le Blanc,” she
    used a program called Chant to create three synthetic

I didn't know PDP-10 was used in this area.
