Zander Noriega explains why copying is good, as long as you satisfy some crucial conditions (unless you want to become a joke among peers).

He talks about the Lindy effect.

He tells you who to copy, and gives you one method for copying.

Some ranting about atonality in the works of the "Second Viennese School" composers.

And some talk about his favorite Hungarian composer.
