Shhh!!!

I struggle a little bit with the concept of a piece which you can't quite hear as too many years of sitting in front of the percussion section in orchestras has had it's toll on my eardrums.  Personally, I like my music to be of a volume that I can actually hear it.

But it's always good to push the boundaries and open a debate about music.
