Thank you for posting. It's a strange acoustic mashup. It sounds like these two pieces don't cooperate because they are both instrumentally clashing in pitch and harmonic arrangement. However, the desire to listen to this odd clash of harmonics still somehow manage to maintain your attention, at least with me.
You're strangely compelled to make these two mismatched tones work, even if you have to deceive yourself into thinking they do when they really don't. I guess if you expose yourself to it repeatedly you may find it works by process of familiarity.
This is brillant -- I was sitting in the stall during the Turnage premiere thinking, "it can't be - but it is!". Later watching the BBC iPlayer video, I opened up the Beyoncé video in another tab and by perfect serendipity it came in in synch and even in the same tune. I do feel that Turnage should acknowledge his debt.
But why leave it there -- there are some great tunes by Lady Gaga just gagging (sorry) to be turned into orchestral greats.
@stav2009 I couldn't believe it either! I was in the arena for the performance and was shocked to find out that most of the regular prommers' didn't even know who Beyonce was!
This is cool, but if you go to around 2:25 on the video of the full piece (posted by clazzicalmode), you'll see a part of the song that has been missed here.

Today we learn that Beyonce is, in fact, related to Gustav Mahler!

It's funny.. both originals seem to be lacking something, but when combined it's a perfect marriage! Well done Mr Russet! Loving the title as well!

@Rodflute I think 'marriage' is the correct word, they where definitely made for each other!
