pixie_twinkle 60 Posted March 4, 2011 Author Posted March 4, 2011 Thanks everyone!Congrats! BTW Was your dissertation about the Rautavaara's piece you mentioned some time ago?KarolThat's the second half, yes.Part 1: An original composition full of leitmotives. Very programmatic and, dare I say, filmscore-like.Part 2: An analysis of the various unifying elements among the consecutive movements of Rautavaara's 7th Symphony, including his tonal use of 12-tone techniques! All together it's about 320 pages long! I am incredibly relieved it's all over, and I made it through.
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 12,388 Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 Jellybaby! Idiot!I know what you are, but what am I?
Andy 7,731 Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 That's tremendous. A lot of hard work, I'm sure.
pixie_twinkle 60 Posted March 5, 2011 Author Posted March 5, 2011 Thanks! I'm looking forward to not having this thing looming over my head. It's been a constant stress for the last 5 years plus.
