I used to always see the old picture thumbnail and would think to myself, "Yep, that's gonna get flagged." Regardless, I think the new picture suits the music just as well, if not better, as it does occasionally have a disjointed feeling, although it always manages to pull itself back together be...

Makes me think of a more romantic Bartok. Gorgeous piece, and a nice upload, btw.

@MaestroTJS Not negative at all. The second Concerto Grosso was pretty much Silent Night, but that's part of the charm, hearing things we're so used to disintegrate before our very ears, until something dark and foreboding is all that remains of our now-ancient identification with the music.

@stiv2slava I'd thumb you up for that keen observation, but, alas, I cannot. Regardless, the piece is played well enough, but it's just not the same without that epic, full, dissonant Rondo to follow.

I wonder how many of these clips I KNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!

P.S.: YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! is the greatest related video I can possible imagine for this video. Thanks Youtube!

Jeez, you're all so insensitive, can't you see they're just providing sign language for the hearing impaired!?!

First time I heard of Mayhem, I came for the shark and stayed for the music... came for the shark... Oh boy, that's gonna haunt me...

@dimsimlord ...but I heard this on National Public Radio...

TIME PARADOX'D!

1:26 if you want to hear the music instead of applause

Among all modern composers, Cowell holds a special place in my heart, because he understood and valued the beauty of both atonal and tonal music, whereas nearly all other composers have fallen on some side of an imaginary line of conflict between the two. Only someone with such a mindset could me...

There's now a leek in Bikini Bottom... ROFL

I like the way you have the picture slowly zoom in... Wait, it is zooming in right? Yikes, too much atonality for one night I guess...

Better than her dying of semen cancer at the beginning of Mass Effect 3.

@koreankayagum The question is, will you play it in your own basement? In the focused compositions of Bach, you never get a chance to sit back and listen to the sounds, and the emotions that they bring out. The silence, the warm ring of the lighter bells, the ominous thundering of the lower drums...

@Sadornicus Nah, I'm just glad someone read it (I sure didn't, ;D)

Annoying dissection of music aside,

Simple good old fashioned genius here. Not the pretentiousness of the avant-garde, nor the tired classical-Mozart cliche, just a gripping genius that grabs you by the lapels and yanks you into a fast-paced thrill ride the likes of which you've never felt before...

For a man who made music by formula, Xenakis quite ironically comes out as being original in our world of weight-depraved music. Between endless throngs of preteens singing "Baby,baby, baby, OO!" to equally endless throngs of sheep flocking to praise that endless pile of pounded out motif that is...
