There was a particular doodle-dee-doo-doo-doo-doo in the strings back there which put me in mind of something familiar by Bartók.
Avatar 2:24pm
Kurt Gottschalk:

This piece is using themes by Carlo Gesualdo, who died around 1615. Bartok may well have borrowed the same thing.

Their big thing now is updating Yamaha's disklavier, I think
Avatar 2:42pm
Kurt Gottschalk:

that might be the Spiro thing that caine and lin used, mike. they recorded onto the pianos and then took the pianos into the studio to play back for the recording.

slang i learned from an aussie. it's an abreviation of "no wuckers" which is a condensation of "no fuckin' worries." i find it quite useful.
