John Luther Adams – Inuksuit

You have to admit this is cool. Dozens of percussionists, a big warehouse, and John Luther Adams' "ultimate environmental piece".

This is a 15-minute edit of a 60-minute piece, which is absolutely worth a listen if you are so inclined.

That was disorienting in all the best ways. Very cool.

I loved the guy with the xylophone who would hit like 4 notes, then go on a coffee break.

And play those four notes with utter conviction and apparent precision.

Like the woman at 8:57, what cue is she waiting for to hit that single note?

  Right. It seemed chaotic enough to be random, but clicked in such a way that it couldn't possibly have been.
