Not sure what symphony this is but the performance is really incredible. This piece of music was what Made Frank Zappa want to write music, according to his aurtobigraphy.

Fantastic, note it was only Varese early works pre 1915 that were destroyed and it was a warehouse fire in Berlin- not him going mad. Varese did later destroy his one remaining work for the period before he went to the US ie pre 1915. But his works are freely available on CD and he was producing new music up till the late 50's

Sounds like a fire at a drum school. I love it!
