May I add the observation that at this point it is pretty difficult to
write original "serioso" concert art NON-12tet music that is not:
1) Minimalism
2) Prokofievian rewrites of history
3) Serialism (still) or "derivative" pieces in a more extended
"theatrical" version of this genre
4) Theatre pieces
