  • i doubt he could as this piece is complex and designed in certain way so that the number of beats matches that of certain numbers, for example the crochets in this sonata = 28 this music is not created for entertainment purpose but more for art, and if you don't like it don't listen to it! simple right :)

  • The first note sounds suspiciously like Windows 95 popping up an error box! Cage was clearly ahead of his time.

  • What are you supposed to get out of this?

  • @ICanHazCatBurger I wasn't trolling at any point buddy, I was merely venting my feelings over the few minutes I wasted listening to this because I really find it bland and boring as music. I'm only still here because people keep replying to my comments...

    It's not trolling if you're retorting to someone attempting to offend you.

  • @lozgibbs243 I'd like to say that, I, for one, find this piece simple and beautiful, but above all just peaceful. It isn't some kind of musical number game to me, just a balanced, wandering, stream of startling tone colours. If you don't feel the same, cool, there are lots who don't, and I can see why this isn't everyone's cup of tea. However, you do yourself a disservice by trolling on this vid.

  • I like your idea for this video. Very surprising vegetables!

  • @luigiperso Ad hominem everywhere cockmunch.

    It's all fine and dandy this piece being 'art' but if it sounds like shit you're hardly going to listen to it very often.

    Don't cry cause I'm right bro.

  • @lozgibbs243 , if that's true, then you are more worthless than an amoeba

  • amazing work

  • great work!

  • well this is a big pile of shit.
