composition

[ingrassia/colovini <ingrassia@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

"... we can envision one last network, beyond exchange, in wich music could
be lived as composition, in other words, in wich it would be performed for
the musician?s own enjoyment, as self-communication, with no other goal than
his own pleasure, as something fundamentally outside all communication, as
self-trascendence, a solitary, egotistical, noncommercial act. In this
network, what is heard by others would be a by-product of what the composer
or interpreter wrote or performed for the sake of hearing it."
