Three cheers,

thanks also for uploading this piece in 256kbps..

markus

Thanks Jay [[[;)]]], William [[[;)]]] and Markus [[[;)]]]



Beat,

I love your Brandenburg! [:D]


Christian,

A lot of fun what you did. Love it! Do the drums all come from VSL? Interesting if so...


Stefan,

I enjoyed your interpretation in both, harpsichord and harmonium. The harmonium pieces (and interpretation) are very charming, interesting style...


Markus,

The strings were composed with Appa and some other VSL string lib.
And thanks for your nice compliment. [:)]

John Cage must be turning in his grave...

Oh, Cage is a genius
...but I dont think he'd ever pretends to be romantic

I wonder what Cage would have done in the Age of sample engines
- perhaps preparing prepared piano samples. [[;)]]

With Cage's inventive mind he'd probably be working on prepared computer samples, whatever that would be! [*-)]

perhaps even more probable, that he'd sit 4′33″ in front of his Laptop or
perhaps more likely would programm another ASLSP piece for Longtime Samples up to the Year 3020 (that would be a great job for an evrything else surpassing highlevel VSL Sample Library with each single Sample needs several terabyte RAM) [H]

I'm sure if Cage was alive he'd manufacture samples for 4'33", and they would be expensive! [:D]

Of course since 4'33" is an extraordinary Pianopiece that uses all keys in the same way, you have to sample them all over the keyboard

... of course, those are the very special Keyboard samples that are still missing in the new VSL Sampleset. [[;)]]

I could imagine during the recording session at Abbey Road studio, all the recording engineers looking at each other, confused [8-)] , while John Cage is recording these samples....

Yes. Also the mastering engineer wondering whether to apply further noise reduction . . . [*-)]

Of course thatt will be a nightmare for every mediocre Masteringchap:
to keep the original 4'33" of each key without any perceptible disturbances at all. -
Thats the ultimate challenge only the VSL-Team is ready to cope with [[;)]]

If ever it's released I'm very concerned about using the right speakers.
Maybe Dietz can be some help....

I've designed a speaker especially for playback of this piece - it is weightless, invisible, signal-free and requires no electricity or audio connection. VSL users can buy them from me at a special discount rate of $4999 a pair. [[;)]]

I'm also considering developing a weightless, invisible woofer to cope with the challenging silent sub-bass frequencies of Cage's "masterpiece".

wonderful... in need this speakers!!!

maybe we can exchange...

i designed a special anti-limiter and a special time-strech-plug to get the 4'33 into 4 years and 33 months without sound artefacts (especially designed for use in a church [:)])

These are EXACTLY what I'm looking for, especially since I was running out of place in my computer area. I'll definitely order a pair, even 2. I'll be paying with my numberless credit card, it works with the "Unexsisting Bank of Canada".

Wait till I tell my imaginary wife, Ingrid, about this!

Great, I look forward to receiving your non-payment. I forgot to mention that as well as being invisible and weightless the speakers are constructed of non-matter, so you may have a bit of trouble setting them up.

A word of caution Guy: psychologists have warned that arguments about money with imaginary spouses can cause anxiety and depression. I'm sure that "Ingrid" is very understanding, but rather than admit to her that you shelled out five thousand non-bucks on a pair of fictitious speakers to play back a silent piece lasting 4 years 33 months, tell her you bought a coffee table instead.

Hi Conquer
I'm very interested in your ghost-speaker-offer too. But I have some questions first:
Includes the $4999.- the delivery as well? Or are you able to "beam" them?
If yes, do you need the coordinates of the end positions or those of my letterbox/ front door? May I beam the invisible packing material back to you? Are there any rights of return? [[[;)]]]


Guy: Thanks for paying compliment on my Brandenburg Concerto.
