Automatic Composing

Just in time for Halloween, Cryptonymus has posted this wonderful 3-disc set of creepy stuff at Allegory of Allergies.

It concludes with a healthy dose of Rosemary Brown, who claimed to be a medium for dead composers. In this interview, she says that Schubert is the only one who revises his music when he works with her and that Liszt communicated a piece to her in front of three witnesses from the BBC. The piece is titled Grübelei, and Brown says that it took a while to learn because it's in F-sharp, with one hand playing in 5/4 while the other plays in 3/2.
