There used to be a classical music show on one of these streams. I would have heard it back during the pandemic, then it went away. I'd like to find the archive. Can anyone help?

Speaking of dead people, here are the names of the meeting rooms where I work: Stravinsky, Berio, Varese, Messiaen, Nono, and the outlier Shannon (there used to be a Cage one, but it was turned into something else)

Would this be categorized as avant-garde classical music?

In avant-garde rooms, dead composers meet for tea parties.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 5:49am
fred:

Real story: when I joined my workplace, some asshole (my boss) was in charge of designing a database of bio info about composers. He made "date of death" a mandatory field. Like "a good composer is a dead composer". (I quit but got hired by another department)

The main thing I'm interested there is the showcase of young composers.
Though they'll be being tribute to Peter Rehberg this year (he is dead though). I might go for Tujiko Noriko, if I don't have a dance show that day
