Dave, here's a question for you:
Where did you learn about composing using the 12-tone row?
From the book by Schonberg? (sp?) From another source?
I'd like to learn something about this concept, but have never
run across a source...
Thanks,
John Lyon

All instruments are from the 8mbgmsfx.sf2 soundfont, played via QSynth.
The output from QSynth is routed to Jack Rack running the Versatile
Plate Reverb LADSPA plugin. I recorded the original stereo WAV routing
Jack Rack's output to ecasound.
The MIDI sequence was created in Sequencer Plus Gold, running under
DOSemu. I've been using this sequencer since 1985, by now it's a
familiar instrument.
I've written elsewhere in this thread re: the composition itself. It's
basically a series of more-or-less related improvisations on a 12-tone
row.
Best,
