I see your argument and I raise you one more: it's not only the styles that universities nurture but also the ones they dismiss. Europe has a strong avantgarde tradition and if the students' personal tendecies are too removed from it (for example if they wanted to write more conventionally), they might not be able to get enrolled at all. Let us remember that one Rite-like scandal in post-War Darmstadt when the audience protested against the thirds and sixths.

(To anyone wondering, I was a Patron of Samuel for a while and probably sent more than half a dozen pieces to him and he is worth supporting, good feedback and insight!) I to wonder where I sit in these camps. 😵😵 my stuff isn't avant-garde... I think my musical style is nothing necessarily "new". I want to sound like if Bach played jazz and blues. Lol, always looking forward to your videos! Appreciate yo

Spot on Samuel...It's hard to be brave and different. There is an orthodoxy in education, publishing and funding which gives the available money and performances to superficially complex music and is wary of anything else - so it's possible to make a living in that avant-garde world by being 'in the swim'. Dare to step outside it and integrate more direct material and you then run the risk of competing with genuinely 'popular' music where the streaming royalties would leave you penniless...I like both avant-garde and more direct styles if they're original, but it baffles me that 'edge cases' are what grab all the available sponsorship money, performances and prestige publishing - it just becomes a self-fulfilling avant-garde prophesy.

It seems from my limited insular view that teh institution is a huge factor. Does this have to do with the academic position as either an adjunct to composing or its opposite- teaching as an adjunct to composing? Either way, it's a closed shop. I'm sure there are individuals who have musical expression as a vocation, who wish to instill that in students. In this strange environment where the will to fame and fortune is so overpowering, an individual voice born from who one is, is dangerous to that goal.

As though expecting that something new is just going to crop up any day now? I would like to know is style being copied or technique? And since so much experimental music of the kind you mentioned was about extended techniques and technology itself, I feel style got lost anyway in a kind of general feeling of an engineered music...

I would guess that it has more to do with many of these students not feeling comfortable in their own musical voices yet. So, they look to the most avant-garde developments and write derivatively in the hopes that they appear more sophisticated.
