Description

World premiere: Baden-Baden, December 3, 1977

The typical aura attached to the guitar as a folk and art instrument encompasses the primitive as well as the highly sensitive, intimate, and collective. It also includes aspects that can be precisely described in historical, geographical and sociological terms. These expressive potentials are available from the start; but for a composer, the problem is not to use them or even desperately to ward them off, but rather to incorporate them among the musical resources chosen, while simultaneously allowing them to be incorporated into oneself. With this in mind, I began with typical modes of playing the guitar, simplifying techniques but also reshaping and developing them, often beyond the limits that had been set by a practice that revolved around this aura.

While composing — or, more precisely, while conceiving and refining relationships between sound and movement — I constantly had the feeling that this music was "accompanying" something; if not a text, then isolated words or thoughts: things, at least, that should be considered but cannot be expressed in words, because we live in a largely speechless society in which nuanced communication has been rendered useless by media excesses and the ruthless manipulation of emotions. This is suggested by the inclusion of spoken words deriving from Illusion and Reality: A Study of the Sources of Poetry by the English Marxist poet and author Christopher Caudwell, who, exactly forty years ago, died in Spain at the age of thirty alongside those who attempted to stop the Franco regime.

Caudwell's aesthetics demands an art that is becoming conscious of its causality and expresses this in the name of a kind of freedom that encourages people to confront reality truthfully, with all its multi-layered contradictions, instead of sticking their heads in the sand or taking refuge in private idylls. Caudwell's thinking — which, to this day, has been deliberately ignored by his own political kindred spirits — also requires rejecting those who enable this politicized concept of art and freedom to be further degraded by forcing it into a Procrustean bed of ideological doctrines that have been revealed, meanwhile, to be essentially pretexts for new forms of oppression. This piece is dedicated to him and to all outsiders who, because they interfere with mindlessness, are quickly branded as destructive.

Helmut Lachenmann, 1977 (translation: Seth F. Josel)

Updated, still going !! didn't last two minutes.
Color: Checkers - Elephant (Gray), Size: Large, Color: Checkers - Elephant (Gray), Size: Large
I hated giving this a 1 star, because it was so cute when I unpacked it today. I just gave it to my dog and in less than two minutes he has a hole ripped in it.! he loves it so I don't wanna take it away from him, but I'm sure it's going to be gone in another few minutes. Why can't someone make a stuffed animal for a dog that lasts like they say so on their listing? I really should take it away from him and send it back, but I don't have the heart. I had to come back and give this a better review. it deserves at least four stars because even though he ripped holes in it, this one has lasted way longer than any other toy. He's actually still playing with it, and it still has some crinkle left to it so he didn't destroy the whole thing as quickly as he did other stuffed animals. I will certainly buy another one because at least it lasted a week so far!

Looks Nice But Destroyed by my Lab
Color: Checkers - Elephant (Gray), Size: Large, Color: Checkers - Elephant (Gray), Size: Large
A really cute little elephant. My lab loved it and carried it around for a week. Then the elephant began losing body parts. Both legs are gone now plus the big squeaker. Lab still likes the elephant and carries it around. Its loosing stuffing and the real question is what body part is next. Its nice but not tough.

Still in one piece and played with!
Color: Checkers - Dinos Bruto (Purple), Size: Mini
Very durable for my little King Charles Chewer. She's had it for a while now and all though the chewing phase has calmed down, she still can be somewhat rough with the toys. The little dino is standing firm. It was a battle she figured she couldn't win with Dino. Now he's a fetch/ tug o war toy that still gets a few nibbles.

DONT BUY THE ELEPHANT, ITS NO GOOD. but GR8 BRAND!
Color: Checkers - Elephant (Gray), Size: Large
The elephant toy had no trunk by the FIRST day! The elephant now looks like an angry Koala bear OR an angry trunk less elephant(whichever u want to say) I LOVE the donkey and dinosaur toys so I bought the elephant confidently, thinking I had nothing to worry about. I wouldn't have spent money on this knowing the trunk would be chewed off in a matter of minutes. My Bella usually chews but she has had her donkey and dinosaurs with the chew guard for MONTHS and there are NO TEARS OR RIPS even with her playing and chewing on them ROUGHLY all day. If you buy any of these type toys I DO highly recommend the donkey or dinosaurs ONLY. The elephant being chewed up in a matter of minutes really makes me angry that I ever spent the money on it. HAD I known it wouldn't be the high quality dog toy I'm used to from GoDog, I would've just bought a second donkey or dino! Now Bella doesn't get her new toy for the month (I try 2 buy her a new stuffed toy or 2 about 1 time a month whenever I have the extra money for it) I guess she will have to go without this month because I spent it on this now trunkless elephant/angry koala:( Whichever name you call it, it is now going to be trash. UPDATE! If you contact the GODOG company they will send one replacement toy for your pet! They also asked me my pet's size, breed and age in order to send the best possible toy! They sent Bella a snake that has held up Extremely WELL! It's great and so far is my favorite(and one of Bella's favorites) The snake has less sqeaky things in it so she doesn't have the drsire to tear it apart immediately to retrieve them by rippong it to shreds:) My updated rating is for the MANUFACTURER'S GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE. The fact that they actually replaced it was good but the fact that they went that extra mile by researching the best toy match for my Bella was above and beyond! If you have a Godog toy that went bust right away, contact the manufacturer for a replacement. If you give them your dog's age, weight and breed they will even try to match your pets replacement toy with something that is better suited to your dog's chewing style. (Bella's style is destructive haha) Good luck, ya'll!
