Witold Lutosławski: String Quartet
Witold Lutosławski: String Quartet is a studio album by the Kronos Quartet, containing String quartet by Polish Witold Lutosławski composed in 1964 and first performed in 1965.[1] This string quartet is an example of aleatory music, that is, music in which some element of the composition is left to chance, and/or some primary element of a composed work's realization is left to the determination of its performer(s). As Gerald Gold noted in a review of the Kronos album in The New York Times, "the Lutoslawski composition integrates notated music with chance performance."[2]

gollark: Idea: discrete cosine transforms.
gollark: > On Sunday, baidicoot declared that the first demo would be released soon-ish (but not now). Although the engine was ready, some minor features like controls needed to be added before it met with the lord's approval. But, due to baidicoot's phenomenal genius, the demo was finished in just a few hours, uploading “epeleptic demo” to his GitHub at 2020-04-12 16:48 UTC+0100. This was the first release of EWO, v0.1.0.0, also known as “EPILEPSY DEMO”.
gollark: I agree.
gollark: True, true.
gollark: I've read two and heard of one other dystopia novel built around the "disputes settled with single combat" thing, which is kind of a bad sign for the idea of allocating resources that way.
