Revolution No. 9 - video responses

The Beatles eight-minute avant-garde work, Revolution No. 9 is a bizarre “musique concrete” piece that bears influences from Karlheinz Stockhausen, Edgard Varèse, Luigi Nono, and John Cage. In my research on Revolution No. 9, it turned up a lot of interesting and very creative video responses from YouTube, which I’ve included for our Pith Music audiences. Check them out…. you may want to hear the piece in it’s original form (which I’ve posted here on our home page) without all the video art, first.

There is much history with this piece, all the talk about satan, Paul is Dead, etc… that I would suggest reading about it in Wikipedia.
