György Ligeti: Continuum (for barrel organ)

A quick followup to a previous re-blog from acousmata.

Ligeti’s Continuum, as played on a barrel organ. The barrel organ offers more precision than the human harpsichord player of the original can offer, but the quality of the notes from the organ is already more continuous. The harpsichord benefits from sharp, bright attacks. I also have the player piano arrangement now, so maybe that will have to go up sometime soon…
