I don't know. I have a fundamental lack of understanding of what is
desired tempo-wise and rhythmically in these kinds of scores.
Notations like 60.75 beats to the minute and time signatures of 5/12
don't make it any clearer to me.
Get yerself a score or two, and take a look for yourself - I'm honest
when I say it's not difficult music :)
And if you ever get the chance to hear Ferneyhough speak, or especially
to see him in a workshop/student situation, take it. He's a minority
among composers, in that he is an exceptionally good teacher, and able
to adjust his speech and his comments to suit both the tutee and also
the audience.
