187 hits on one album; how did they do it? :eek:

It's true; I was just whistling one of those rows on the way to the store. :grin:

I love the guest appearance by Stravinsky. :lol:

Yah, Stravinsky was a real hoot ... got a real bang out of that part. :rolleyes:

187 hits in about 46 minutes ... let's see now ... that's ... 24 seconds for each "hit", that is unless Stravinsky missed someone on one of his six shots, then they would have a few seconds more ... :shake:.

Party pooper.

I think it's a hilarious spoof. Just a bit of harmless silliness. At least, I think it's harmless...

The corny American accent just adds to the hilariousness of it. I just wish there were ore people able to understand the humour.

I had no problem with understanding the humour young man, I'm not American you know, don't need to have a joke explained to me after I hear it (sorry for the generalisation).

What I meant was people in general, not people on this forum. This sort of music doesn't have much of a following outside of classical music circles, and yet I'm sure a lot of people would like it if they heard it.

A good example of people liking atonal music once they get a chance to hear it is this: I was playing a piece by Messiaen at a school concert. Practically nobody in the audience would ever think of listening to mainstream classical music by choice, and yet, after the performance, people were telling me how much they enjoyed it.

I would not call Messiaen mainstream ;)
Regarding children and atonal music I have also found they are more open to it than the old jokers such as myself

Yes, atonal music seems to appeal to people's sense of 'noise', the sort of thing one might hear in some sort of heavy metal song.
