I learned about this from a RadioLab podcast - my latest obsession... Imagine taking Beethoven's 9th Symphony and stretching it out over 24 hours, without distorting the sound. Yeah, it sounds weird, but it's entrancing. There have been several "performances" of this -- imagine sitting through 24 hours of very strange, ambient music.... Save yourself the effort of staying up for 24 hours and listen to a streamed version of the performance here.

Glad you're a Radiolab fan too! And yes, that 24-hour-long 9th Symphony is just amazing.

YES!
I am loving Radiolab. It is a great radioshow/podcast and I wish they could put out more episodes for people like you and I that are obsessed!
Thanks for the link to the 24 hour long 9th Symphony.
