instrumental inventor
Since September 5, 2000, which is the 88th birthday of the avantgarde composer and artist John Cage, the slowest and longest concert that the world has ever heard has been playing: ORGAN2/ASLSP more info: Translated: "A long concert of 6 centuries" In 1997 a group of amateur philosophers and musicians, discussed the idea of playing the piece in an organ, knowing no bounds of time compared to a piano. And if you could play the part of 639 years? ... The only drawback would be the creation of a permanent body. It was finally decided its construction at the monastery of San Burchardi north of Germany. In a church that was used as a dump during the years of communism, the construction was completed in 2001, a great work of perfection, taking into account the capacity of the pipe organ to play with the bellows pump stop, the piece provides an interpretation enormously long ... ... The performance began on September 5 to commemorate the anniversary of Cage. Although the action began that same day, the first note began on February 5, 2003 .... This note was extended until July 5, 2005, showing the reality of how long the work would last. If the body does not stop, the part will continue playing until he reaches the end, exactly the September 5, 2640 ... a long concert of 6 centuries.

and there's that other coincidence I've uncovered today...
while I was searching for the previous linked-pic, I got myself re-acquainted with this little gem of a web search client, & I saw this album cover that made me pause for a second or two, and I now realize why: fate told me I was going to use it. Frank'd and Zappa'd out { Frank Zappa - The Yellow Shark (Ensemble Modern's Live Orchestration) }
