I guess he wanted to write additional pretentious claptrap of his own. I am well aware of John Corigliano. I just think his stuff is crap for the most part as I don't really give two shits for most modern symphonic (I hesitate to say classical) work.,,,,,,don't like the Red Violin either.

And yeah, Dylan stole the tune but the JC crap has no "tune." Sounds like he might have written it for Yoko Ono.........
