  • i see the instrument budget was a bit short that year.....

  • I wonder what made the audience spontaneously begin to improvise on the piece before and after the performance O_o

  • won't their hands feel sore?

  • @ttoille23 Captain Obvious.

  • from what i believe...

    this piece is based in 12/8 and there is two parts playing seperately. both start off playing in usison and then one starts 'phasing' one subdivision (in this case, and 8th note) back every time. hope this clears up any questions about the piece, quite clever really, good minimalist composer imo:)

  • no one without a musically trained ear would have any idea what in the heck they were doing. lol i'm surprised ppl didnt fall asleep lol

  • @MrJuno6 Well it's communication through an instrumental ( percussive) tone.

  • @ttoille23 Somebody missed the joke...

  • A wonderful performance indeed!

  • @ttoille23 durrrrrrrrrrrr! i'm pretty sure it was a joke

  • @kville105125 they were clapping for the act... it wasnt improv
