With all due respect, it takes a little longer than a month to write a symphony, especially if you're doing it by hand. Try many months to several years.
I agree. I was making the point that very simple music takes bands months to write and record yet a serious composer can collate his/her ideas for a vast number of people to perform in a similar time span and the peice will usually work first time. And I hate schizophrenic prog that leaps from different styles and time signatures without ever developing an idea to some sort of fruition. I suspect this pap isn't born out of unbelievable talent and an abundance of creativity, it's more a lack of ability to explore and develop, to go on an excursion and then resolve.
