24 Hours Of Beethoven's 9th Symphony

Ermintrude the Flying Cow writes "Ever wonder what "Ode to Joy" would sound like if stretched to 24 hours? Now you can find out. 9 Beet Stretch is the result of running Beethoven's 9th Symphony in a digital stretching program, turning the one hour piece into a 24 hour attention span acid test. Thankfully, for those of us who know our limits, it's been cut into 19 parts."

  1. Teach your kids to hate classical music by Gizzmonic · · Score: -1, Troll

    I thought it was bad when my parents forced me to go to the symphony...but I served them right by learning to hate classical music.

    This 24 hour symphony will arouse a whole new generation filled with hatred towards classical music. And that's good. No son of mine will listen to a bunch of melodies written by men who wore powdered wigs and frilly lace panties.

    Besides disco, classical music was the worst and most embarassing music in history. Thank God for black people or we'd still be listening to that Nazi shit.

    Um, I guess the answer is the same one as for these questions.

    Why are you trying to port Linux to you game console?
    Why are you bringing your coffee machine into the internet?
    Why are you going back in time to fetch some whales?

    No... I guess the second one has a different answer:
    Because it's convenient to be able to check the status everywhere on the world.

    Anyway, these people seam to be musicians and did it by clustering people (my assumption from the abundant information on these pages).
    What do musicians usually do?
    Nothing productive anyway, like web-designers /duck

  3. 24 hours, easily done by hoytt · · Score: 1, Troll

    I just pop the CD of Beethoven's 9th in to my Hifi and hit repeat. Very easy to do, just buy the CD and listen to the real thing. It's absolutely worth it.
