Comments

  • @drgiles Your comment is pertinent, however it seems that the entire exercise actually relies a great deal upon the composers involved "co-opting" their own contacts in order to publicize this competition. Without this, one suspects that there would be very few comments at all. This site is not very well put together - the project 440 page is almost impossible to find, it's hard to find information on the project as a whole from the composer list pages. It would be nice to see a "recent comments" bar somewhere so one could get a sense of the overall dialogue, rather than having each page as its own isolated little chatroom. In the end, one assumes that Orpheus will pick whoever they like anyway and we will all feel a little dirty for having been part of this.

  • drgiles's comments are well-put together but very similar to numerous other comments. As pleasant as they are, they are not as detailed or as developed as I would like. One could wish for a more in-depth development but, overall, a good professional effort.
