After listening to this beautiful, flowing piece, who's melody danced daintily across my eardrums like the ballerina of music, I saw everything differently. This piece finally opened my eyes to the reality of this world. It HIT me. The reality is that everything is a piano. A chair is not a chair, it's just a piano with the legs closer together and no keys, with a very low build. Mr. Green is not a person, he is just a piano that's just MISSing two legs and is able to speak. Everything is a piano! I never noticed it until listening to the tinkling tonal pleasures that emanated from my computer during this listening blog. I could feel the uplifting harmony with all five senses. It smelt like the angels of heaven, it looked like a strip of bacon, it sounded like the angelic entities from above, and it tasted like three strips of bacon. Then, when the cadence built up and overflowed into the timbre of the anacrusis, it was absolutely electrifying! I literally felt surges of electricity flowing through me. My parents thought it was because I had accidentally stuck my car keys in the wall outlet, but I know better. I know that this piece affected me like none has ever before! Absolutely electrifying! The way the diatonic super-harmony was buried beneath a timbre-less multi-cadence of post-productional half steps which were proportionally matched with enharmonic hemiolas extracted from a major median reduction was absolutely brilliant! I loved how the composer reversed the staggered timbre and smelted the rhythm into a structural phenomenon of conjugated fourths with an augmented anacrusis in the bass. But the best idea of all was when the composer eludicated the octatonic quadruplet while simultaneously reintegrating the augmented second inversion tuba into a plagal pleasure. I'd say the main thing was probably like a bebop-soul fusion with a ragtime refrain. The Cantus Firmus definitely can be traced back to influences of popular modern plainsong, while the species reduction is definitely based on a soft, plagal rock. The intonation of the Rhythmus Firmus and the Melodic Canticle caught my ear even before the anacrusis had ended, and the retardation of the Cantus Ants-In-My-Pantsus was clocked at a record tempo! Every element of theory was present in this piece from the beginning to the end! There were whole notes, and definitely half notes as well. The variety even went deeper. If you don't listen to this, you are probably a loser, because this song is worth the full listen, even if it is 92 minutes long. Would I recommend to a friend? Heck, I would recommend this to the wife of Vladimir Putin's son!
