That's a good point.  Not only samples, though, synthesis and DSP as
well.  However, there are as many 'scoring' systems as
there are composers.  Stockhousen has actually realized a score for
his 'Studie II' which is an electronic composition for tape.  The
score provides enough information to exactly recreate the work using
an oscillator (or a number of them, I can't recall) and a tape
recording/dubbing machine.  Someone has actually used it to generate
the piece in real-time with Max/MSP.  However, synthesis methods have
evolved in complexity a lot in the past 50 years...

Well, must be _the_ reason I started improvising :)  I must have been,
like: ' Ahh... stop trying to write down what you mean.  Just get out there and _play_!'

Also, no notation system is complete.  Not even text.  I'm talking
from a performer's point of view, of course.
