I usually download music with a dongle which can be slow and expensive but this week I've been using a friend's wireless broadband to save music for later listening (Nine Rivers, amongst others).
George Aperghis' is distinctly my favourite of the pieces I've heard so far. It seemed very playful and approachable, particularly the alternations of brilliance with some deadpan mumbling from the strings and woodwind 'crowd'.
I don't think I found any filmic rhythm, though. Interplay was apparent but I presumed there were temporal intricacies which were beyond me to catch (by that, I mean that I imagined the "shot/reverse shot" as suggesting a linear script being recreated fragmentarily in shots before being restored by editing back into a 'line').
Whatever the motives or intentions (which I don't mean to disparage, by the way), it seemed in a way very simple, clear and rewarding as music and it cheered me up. Thanks.

@lescamil – i haven't heard of DIME, so thanks!
@upkerry14 – no, all the recordings on 5:4 are my own.
DIME is a torrent site where lots of lossless live concerts are posted. Many of these premieres have been posted there, along with the entire concert. However, I love this blog because you get a great review, too! Many thanks, as usual, for everything!
