    For all of you minimalist fans out there, check out the webcast from last night's concert featuring Steve Reich's "For Organs" and Julius Eastman's "Evil N*****". http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/118448232 The concert does not start until 20' 35". See attached for a shot of the set-up. I had not seen multiple pianos arranged like this before. Has anyone else?

    P. S. WARNING: In the video introduction, the "n" word gets dropped, many times. To skip that part, go directly to 24' 40".

    So if you stand in the middle and all four pianists play a loud chord, you implode?
