I'm embarrassed (only slightly) that I laughed at this. I've never heard this piece performed (pun intended), but the title of the piece is accurate only if the conductor directs it at the precise tempo intended by the composer, a task rarely done for any classical composition.
I love this tune! I blast it every morning to get my lazy ass out of bed. So far none of my neighbors have complained! Guess I live in a high class hood, eh?
ReplyDeleteI'm disappointed. That video of "4' 33"" is only 3' 42" long!
That composition should be the halftime entertainment for the next Super Bowl.
ReplyDelete@JustaJeepGuy- How embarrassing for the conductor!
ReplyDelete@TrickyRicky- That's a good idea! Of course, it would probably still be performed with exposed butt cheeks and crotch thrusting.
That song keeps going through my head, I can't get it to stop!
ReplyDelete@Sevenheart- In case of emergency, and ONLY emergency, you can instead think about "Baby Shark, doo doo doo doo doo doo..."
ReplyDeleteIt's subtler and more nuanced, if you time it with an analog stopwatch rather than a digital one

ReplyDeleteI'd like to hear what some great jazz musicians do with the tune. I'll bet Miles Davis is working on it right now!
