Boulez laughing while conducting

A crazy moment from Ligeti's Nouvelles Aventures where even Boulez cannot stop from laughing.

It's good to see a performance of this piece with people laughing. Reportedly Ligeti was very frustrated when audiences would take it too seriously.

What exactly is this from?

[@Gwailo54]

Ligeti, (Aventures &) Nouvelles Aventures. It’s worth seeking them both out.

0:02 is that Julius Eastman?

[@thomaslaubli1886]

No, it's William Pearson.

People screaming and breaking things - what could be more witty?

[@sergioazevedo7390]

You forget the context. The basics of the Monthy Python humour, for example, is doing banal things out of context.

Entartete Musik.

Wer das Wort "entartet" benutzt, den darf man wohl einen Nazi nennen.
