I was going to play this at my school's talent show, but when my name was called I realized that I had left my sheet music at home, people were really upset because they couldn't hear this masterpiece
If I had a ukelele, I'd upload a better version of me playing this myself. That's how badly you did, that a non-ukelele player could better you at this song.
you stand still amazingly well, and your playing is so awsome Jimi Hendrix sinks to his kness! <-obviously sarcasm, and im sure your really good on the ukulele. i just cant take anything to do with 4'33" seriously
@JohnDevoto92 Not sure, but I think he might have just taken a 10 second movie of himself and slowed it down to 2 minutes. Just a guess based on how superbly still he was able to stay.
For fuck sake! It's two fucking notes! It's silly, and one of the most simple songs to ever learn ! You all need to stop wasting your time by listening to silence and maybe listen to some real music! The only good silence is suicide silence grow the fuck up and listen to music that doesn't take the piss! Lmaoo! It's actually funny in how much time this wastes and how impressed you are by two fucking notes! LOSERSSS!!!!!!!!
VERY WELL DONE! I think that middle part is played a little differently but I like the little extra that you added on the end...really added some strength to the piece!
watching the videos of musisians at youtube, I sometimes can't help but become scared of such awful interpretations.
THIS video makes a complete difference! f3rt, you did it, it is definitively a very good performance! your feelings, everything. just perfect. I wonder what John Cage would have said. Greetings from Germany
@Huddiethegreat agreed, I like how he prepares the instrument, and then plays the piece. Unlike other youtube renditions where they just sit there. He's missing the stopwatch, though, but I guess it's hard with a ukelele to work a stopwatch, too.
4'33" does have to be 4min 33sec, otherwise it wouldn't be 4'33". And not seeing or hearing the movements doesn't mean they're not existent. greets! =)
I agree with you. That is not what I meant. I meant the title of the piece should reflect the timings chosen. It doesn't have to be 4'33''. As for the movements are you sure you don't have to mark them somehow? Every interpretation I have seen marked (notify) them. But then, I haven't seen or heard every interpretation.... (and I agree they might exist even if not seen or heard).
i already knew what you've meant.. i chose 4'33" simply because it's the most popular title/length of this piece. and the three movements.. take three random movements of me and declare them as the beginnings of the three movements of the piece. ;)
haha you can't really pick random motions of yours to denote the change in movements. Technically the first movement is 30 seconds, the second 2:23, and the last is 1:40
@f3rt course it does that kids obviously off it! the whole point of 4'33 is not for the silence though!! It's for the environmental sounds around it, which are focussed on because of silence :)
