Wow. Thanks for this post, it finally showed up in my YT feed (mostly new music channels). Great performance of a remarkable score, a deep bow to the players.

very nice

[@carlintuitive]

nice music! But next time Treatise on RUclips, please guide us listeners a little more about which visuals are in play at which time... would be nice to be able to see what performers see.

[@nikolausgerszewski2086]

the music is not supposed to be an 'illustration' of the graphs. each musician must find their own way to 'interprete' the score, and create basically their own music. better just listen and not try to match the music with the graphs.

Brilliant performance!

[@MarianoCardilloMusic]

Fantastic!!!!!! LOVE

[@Tetchymonkey]

such a cool interpretation. Really want to perform this!!!!

[@NotRightMusic]

Wonderful! I prefer Treatise to be performed with a smaller ensemble like this one.

[@coreymarcfogel6900]

why

[@tomfurgas2844]

I agree. Larger ensembles tend to meld into an undifferentiated mass of sound. With smaller groups one can more easily grasp the various threads of music as it wends it way though the score.

There is a message here. But I can't find it. Interesting composition.

This music does nothing for me at all... just my opinion.
