Another argument for that:

To think he wrote this while already being completely deaf...


Not so much. Less than 5 minutes? I didn't listen to the fragments though. Just the whole sample and then reading each fragment. Still I had a couple of stupid mistakes of bad reading. And you?

Oh there was a whole sample? I just read the title and began reading the notes. "Ode to Joy" was tricky for me because of the repetitions who were a bit different from I remember
but the rest were easy-peasy so I guess 5 minutes tops.

Hahaha yes! You could listen to the piece and also each little fragment; those I didn't need. Still if you know the pieces well the sample wasn't necessary, but I didn't remember Moonlight that well

It's not the best mashup I've heard, but I definitely appreciate the effort. ![]()

I found it quite interesting and well done considering the difficult to adapt together so many pieces so different to each other.
I didn't like it having a fade out though, kinda kills the spirit of this kind of music. A real ending would have been much better.

As if John Cage or Boulez weren't weird enough: Steve Reich

Congratulations on hearing it all! I couldn't
The technique he uses there though is quite interesting and he worked with it on more musical stuff (still weird but less
). I learned about it on Composition class and had to do a piece in a similar way.
