Cory Arcangel; Drei Klavierstücke
In this recent Project of Cory Arcangel, he has posted a youtube video of a piano composition created by cats. The piece is originally Arnold Schoenberg’s, Drei Klavierstücke (Three Piano Pieces). The piece is an example of atonal music, which abandons traditional tonality which is how most Western music inherently sounds. The music juxtaposes extremes of mood and dynamic to create a overwhelming composition of sound. So Cory recreated this number with editing clips of cats on keyboards and pianos. Even is you don’t like this sort of experimental sound, the video is hilarious. I don’t even like cats but I enjoyed this video.
