A friend of mine played this piece on two pianos for his senior recital and it was amazing. The only standing ovation for a senior recital at Vanderbilt University for years, maybe ever.


Is this it? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AnQdP03iYIo

edit: nevermind, decided (for once) to read the youtube comments. This is Kulas Hall at Baldwin-Wallace College Conservatory in Berea, OH


Mildly interesting (at least in chrome on os x) if you open a new tab on top of it the web audio api stops playing but doesn't seem to stop the timer in the animation leading to a jump and some interesting audio for a beat when you open the tab back up.


Switching away from the tab in FF Dev while it's playing makes for some interesting audio and visual effects.


Just watched this version (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0345c6zNfM), as a drummer~ it was pretty satisfying :)

ps: I just saw the 'solo' version, even more satisfying.

Edit: I've never seen the website, nor have I ever visited any url with 'piano' in the domain name, from work, afaik. ...


I want to see it for Phrygian Gates
