Reminded me of this quote -A lot of minimalist (western classical) music incorporated silence between the notes as part of the music. Example: the music of Estonian composer Arvo Pārt. But pure silence for 4 min and 33 seconds is taking things too far
“The notes I handle no better than many pianists. But the pauses between the notes ah, that is where the art resides”- Artur Schnabel.
