I just came here from a super soft and laid back NPR and boy, I was not ready for this intensity Kind of reminds me of Moon Hooch in the way that they are able to manipulate their instruments to get exactly the sound they want (ie. the beginning of Alligator Escalator). The dysfunctional and chromatic tones must be so hard to play and truly proves how talented these musicians are Top notch stuff
This makes me SOOOOO happy!!! Amy Schroeder is a GODDESS. I took piano lessons from her mom for 14 years and all I can say is that they are the kindest, most compassionate, and talented people I've EVER met. Feels so good to see incredible people's hard work pay off... GO ATTACCA GO!!!! 🙏✊🙏
This is awesome! I actually had the opportunity to meet the entire quartet. Randomly, I was in restaurant in Augusta, Georgia while they were in town. I struck up a conversation with one of the members and was actually invited to a show. Thank you guys! I hope you are all doing well!
They are not accessible to the ordinary person. I find his work polarizing for myself, with truly great pieces (his most popular), like grand pianola, harmonielehre, harmonium, and the dharma at big sur, but much of his other work is so deeply avant-garde or atonal that it feels more like an intensely written ear-sore.
El principio me recordo a bob esponja en donde calamardo se muda a la villa de los calamardos y se une a un club de clarinetes donde siempre tocan lo mismo x) fuera de eso creo que es algo no digerible para todos, me agrada :D
how's unintentional irony working out for you? i'm a broke artist who has given up everything in the pursuit of understanding the integrity of art. i get to decide what i think is pretty and what gives me a fucking headache.
it sounds like an orchestra doing whatever the opposite of melodic metal is. and this begs the question. "Is it music if it doesn`t sound good?" and at what point does it become noise?
Nonsense Poopypants don't listen to free jazz then. I listened to a free jazz version of We Three Kings that took a ten minute walk down Saxophone Screech Lane. It's still music. It's sorta like that really abstract art. It's supposed to make you think. Sometimes it's self aware, sometimes it comes off as artsy fartsy and pretentious.
By your implications any music that isnt sweet melody isnt music at all, which would exclude as non-music anything outside the European romantic idiom and its vestiges including your melodic metal. Feel free to explore ALL forms of music, from all periods, pre- and post-19 century, and how active work with disharmony extends its possibilities and makes it more interesting
Absolutely fabulous from beginning to end. True masters of their craft!

how I do love my tiny desk
Really good performance. I'd not heard Ippolito before but I'm glad I know of him now.
Awesome.. Imagine Chris Thile right there in the middle. Damn son.
Fantastic!
Thank God for Haydn...
6:15 Haydn: "String Quartet in D, Op. 76, No. 5 - I. Allegretto"
Absolutely brilliant
If I could do a thumbs-up with an exclamation point, I would.
Bravo!!!!!!
Brilliant!
Lovely!
Alligator Escalator legit gave me high stress anxiety.
Rachel, I am w/ you; almost enough to trigger a panic attack! 11/25/2016

Can't take anything composed by John Adams seriously, but the Hayden piece was performed beautifully.
Thorium 229m why not? (Don't know much about him or his work besides the film scores, Nixon in China…)

cheetoman23, "An intensely written ear-sore" is an apt description. Love it! 11/25/2016

jaja que ocurrente! xD
Igualmente es cierto, un desafio para quien oye y desea apreciar su arte musical.
jojojo Lo sé, hasta cierto punto me recuerda a la Gran fuga de Beethoveen, saludos :D
Beethoven*
very good group! although the cello players bow hold was bothering me :/
And yet here he is, in a successful young award-winning quartet, when cellists with conventional bow-holds go begging for work. Go figure... ;-)
OH FUCK
jamz b killa. mmm
I've never been so confident a group of people have adderall addictions before. How do you even practice music like this?
The same way you practice any other type of music.
it's called hard work dude
people at the office had no seekbar they could use to skip the second piece :(
