You watched? I suggest to not watch at all but just listen hahahaha
Its beautiful indeed. On YT many different versions around. Have somewhere a link to a recording of 4 hours straight, or I think its around that lenght.
I started to watch it and skipped some parts, but I wanted to watch it until the end as the art illustrations are beautiful as well.
I didn't know about Simeon ten Holt but I read now about Canto Ostinato. It has 106 parts, can be freely repeated, it can be performed in ansamble the musicians preffer, the performance of the composition can last from two hours to more than a day?!!
This piece I came across many years ago and reminded me of what I love in 'rave' music, some of the underground styles of techno. Canto Ostinato is doing the same things for me. It lets me connect with the music on such deep levels, I become one with it and flow around (and with) the music for as long as a want (and this can go on for a long time! 🙃). This Simeon guy was ahead of his time, since it was composed before Techno (one of the main 'rave' music styles) was invented (which was born in the early 80s in Detroit). But so much similarities though one is pure electronic and the other is pure classical of nature.
