La Monte Young and Marian Zazeela - The Well-Tuned Piano in The Magenta Lights

You’ve got six-and-a-half-hours to spare, right? Then enjoy the eternal music of La Monte Young and Marian Zazeela’s Well-Tuned Piano in the Magenta Lights, kindly uploaded in full to the YouTube by the Sounds of the Dawn blog.

Kyle Gann says: “In an ‘eastern’, timeless way, the work can be listened to as a static articulation of a set tuning, a continuous present in which concepts of before and after are irrelevant. In a 'western’ way, it can also be heard as a unidirectional time-pattern of thematic development in which earlier melodies return altered and at different pitch levels. Perhaps it is more accurate to say, avoiding quotation marks and over-worked stereotypes, that the WTP manifests with equal emphasis both poles of the psychic qualities immanent in all musical listening. Few works so satisfy the desires of both structuralist and ambient listeners.“
