a found poem about found music
It opens
With an audience murmur
A clarinet flourish
A few quiet whumps
From a bass drum
A repeated glockenspiel note
A woman laughs
A man says Excuse me
Snare-drum rolls swell
Tambourine shimmers
Timpani thuds
Beefy bassoon notes swirl
A trombone plays exercises
In different keys
Snatches of melodies
The volume of instruments
[Of the] crowd
Grows at a steady pace
A burst of applause [greets]
The concertmaster
The oboe sounds its tuning A
Silence erupts
[The] piece ends
Found in Daniel J. Wakin's piece The Concerts Found Onstage While Everyone Else Takes a Break in today’s New York Times.
The piece is about Christopher DeLaurenti of Seattle, who’s just released Favorite Intermissions, a recording (done up to look just like a Deutsch Grammophon release) of surreptitiously recorded ambient intermission “music”.
Limited run of 1,000 copies. Available at delaurenti.net.
Here’s an MP3 clip from the recording entitled SF Variations »

that's pretty cool!
That's extraordinarily beautiful. I'm working at a classical music festival these days. That's often what it sounds like. Beautiful and wonderful and completely incidental music.
One of the flutists in the piece is playing a psalm which we use as a christmas carol in Denmark and Norway.
agreed. I think it's gorgeous stuff.
