No complaining... great performance. Totally understand the length as the build of crescendo. Each player with very distinct timing of the same piece, off set just one bar it seems at times, one note at others...
having played this, it could have been thinned out a bit. He won the pulitzer prize for a choir piece. Even still, winning an award one time doesn't mean you are above criticism.
You can't say that the so-percussion version is better because they don't use in-ears... Also following the metronome is difficoult in this kind of pieces... Anyway, better or not, So-percussion's version is very good too, and it's curious to see different set-ups on the same piece. :)
It was really good and creative however i found myself losing interest and skipping around in video mainly due to lenth. I would consider condensing it down a bit
Hate that all this musicians must dress like that always, hate that stigma that the academy musicians have, so elitist and clasist, makes the ambient so boring
Alex McNeil I certainly appreciate how you feel if this kind of music is unfamiliar to you. That's totally fair. I believe there is an immense amount of enjoyment to be gained from learning even just a little bit about how this music works. I hope I'm not sounding snobbish or elitist. I think this stuff is awesome! That doesn't make me special or anything. I am just more familiar with David Lang's musical language. Thoughts?
stupidhatonthefloor3 Totally fair mate. My comment is kind of snobbish due to the fact that I don't understand this form of music as I have had minimal exposure to it. Who knows, one day it might click and I'll become fascinated with it!
@@elephantface5029 Some people just enjoy stuff more for its sound and aesthetic purposes while others may enjoy it for its content and meaning. I feel like this style is definitely on the side of people who wish to really analyze every piece of the music for its purpose and content. Also I do think it takes some intermediate idea of rhythm and musical composition to understand what ideas may be implemented. It's all snobbish in nature really lol but its fun! so who cares haha.
@@zsebestien7050 Interesting. I would think that a piece like this would be appreciated more often (although not "more") by people who listen simply for the beauty of sound, as it has such a unique musical vocabulary that it's hard to analyse. I personally am not going to analyse this any more than I would naturally through listening, although I could see others doing that
I got chills when the brake drums entered!

That scale sounds a fair bit like something from Gamelan music
This certainly has a Steve Reich feel to it, really cool!
Great performance! Wonderful piece
Mesmerized for all twelve minutes!
Simplistic yet complex.
Stunning!

smh at all the people who think this Pulitzer Prize-winning composer should consider condensing or distilling this perfection

That guy in the front was getting it tho.
idk I just find this pretty funny
really great timing and coordination, but the piece itself feels long winded
Long winded by eight minutes.
And my mom tells me multitasking isn’t possible lol
癒やしてくれる音色なのかな？それとも激しい音色なのかな？
Missed some complexcity/ counterpoints .. that for instance Balinese music would do to greater effect
If you wanna see this but even better, check out SO percussions version. no in-ears and badass acoustics
Denature69 those are called earplugs)
