Atonal improvisation
on: February 19, 2007, 07:07:04 PM
Fairly unsettling, I really got into this one.  Clusters, glissandos, repeated notes, strange textures, everything I could think of.  Perhaps a musical version of Call of Cthulhu?

call of cthulhu?  was he a viking? 

i have to say that after the schumann - i was expecting to hate this.  but, actually - you have a good control over things that you decide to do with the sounds and the sounds themselves are very listenable.  perhaps everyone should 'do in' an old piano like this at some point or other.  probably was very cathartic for you.

i want to do this with a piano that has been left on the porch of someone on main street.
