If you listen closely you can hear a lot of confused giggling (and some paper tossing at 4:30).

I love how this was written as a giant finger to orthodox composing. It's hilarious.

THIS shows really well how an audience can never just shut it and listen. There will always be coughing, whispering, especially during the Symphonie "Pathétique" from Tchaïkovsky. (I know, I have experienced it)

Oh, yes. The part at 2:05 was very well executed, but a few of the glissandos could stand some improvement.
