this took me SO LONG to learn, but it's a beautiful piece!
comment and tell me what you think!!

just a heads up, halfway through a train goes through and it's REALLY loud so don't have your volume up too high.

oh and I got dreadlocks! well actually i got them june of last year but this is the first they've been on youtube!

If you "don't get this" read up my friend! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4'33

  • This is gonna sound a bit nerdy, but 4' 33' is a three-movement composition, were the timings are 30'', 2'23'' and 1'40''. In the original score the beginning and ending of each movement is indicated by closing and opening the keyboard lid, I think you could improve your performance by marking the beginning and end of each movements in some way. :)

  • @NestorGarciaDiaz i'm actually really jealous of your musical knowledge! hahahh thanks for the feedback :)

  • Awesome. Is that standard tuning?

  • @xorganizationxvx thanks and yeah! i like to lower the pitch a bit though to give it a dramatic feel
