FileMerge later, but this is a little frustrating that I can't compare this old file to a more recent one a
little more easily... or is there some GIT-fu that I am missing?

“Every composer – at all times and in all cases – gives his own interpretation of how modern society is
structured: whether actively or passively, consciously or unconsciously, he makes choices in this
regard. He may be conservative or he may subject himself to continual renewal; or he may strive for a
revolutionary, historical or social palingenesis." - Luigi Nono
