for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, so that means to combat John Cage's 4'33, I propose a piece called 3'44, wherein every single note within range possible is played for three minutes and forty-four seconds

#absence of playing? meet PLAYING EVERYTHING ALL AT ONCE WALL OF SOUND #john cage #4'33 #classical music #post-modern music #this cannot be done by singular wind instruments mind you but ensembles can if those wish to perform it via wind instruments #my vision is either played on piano or harp or a plucked zither tho

I think of you all the time and therefor have little to say that would not embarrass you, for instance my first feeling about the rain was that it was like you.
