Along
similar lines… has anyone tried performing Terry Reilly’s “In C”
by looping themselves playing all the parts ?

Hey all-
Just reading on wikipedia and came
across a really nice quote that I thought people here might enjoy discussing
from a looping pov.
It is hard to write a beautiful song. It is harder
to write several individually beautiful songs that, when sung simultaneously,
sound as a more beautiful polyphonic whole. The internal structures that
create each of the voices separately must contribute to the emergent structure
of the polyphony, which in turn must reinforce and comment on the structures
of the individual voices. The way that is accomplished in detail
is...'counterpoint'.
-John Rahn
I bring it up of course, since
counterpoint is one of those things that can be fairly easily accomplished
with looping .... You hear it in some of the audioclips people have posted
here for that matter. I wonder if anyone here has looped any bach
..... ? Send it over if yah have ....... I would love to hear
that.
