If there's a competitor to juilliard, this would be a great video to show on why you shouldn't go to juilliard.

What in the yoko ono is this?

@eric_rumerez

As audio, yes. As a visual performance, no.

@CastlesForEyes

talk about a total mockery of real music!

@mosesCordovero-uw5vw

Fantastic. This will probably only get better with age. The performer's final expression and posture is amazing.

@ewomack

Beautiful

@x.noybic7007

This genre of music always make me almost slip in the bathroom, I love them

@St3rnum.Syn3rgy

hahahaha ...these two are comedians!

@theofanisbyzantinedescendant

this is genuinely an incredible piece of art. avant garde music isn't about making pretty sounds, it's about intention, and a lot of people don't seem to understand that.

@yas6520

And I thought berthound was joking about avantgarde

@nahudontknowme2064

Anyway, She is beautiful.

@田中三郎-i5x

Only 1930's kids will remember this

@heinrichharkonen2084

Did you know that everything (e.g., molecules, plants, animals, humans, earth, stars, black holes, galaxies etc.) was created by Jesus? He died on the cross for our sins and was resurrected three days later. Believe in Jesus, the Son of God, and you will not perish, but have everlasting life.

- If you want to learn more about Jesus and Heaven, check out the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John in the Holy Bible.

@Dr.Soda7

i fuckin love this, avant garde is art

@lisaminellawasdead

She should have Farted loud too

@sushilmelville8998

man what id give to hear festival of light😭

@thouxanban_flaco114

I remember seeing this in Music Appreciation; All I could think of was how horrible and disgusting this is, and how it perfectly represented the degradation of society during this time.

@Friedrich687

It could have been worse for that guy. He could have been married to her.

@Theywaswrong

The guy turning the sheets...."next time I get ten bucks, this is too much torture for a fiver".

@Theywaswrong

I came here because I was doing a little research on The Walker Brothers who had their high water mark in the 60's. The late lead singer Scott Walker got involved in his "avante garde" music but never could make a living at it. NOW I KNOW WHY, THIS IS PURE CAT SHIRT. "But son, you can't play any musical instrument. Don't need to Dad, listen to this crap".

@Theywaswrong

This is the dumbest shit I've ever heard. Apparently an outlet for people with ZERO musical skills.

@Theywaswrong

That was good

@poppunkwillneverdie

The coach was the unsung hero here. It was their team work that accomplished this amazing feat.

@randomalbum9879

Basically, it’s noise core the beginning of it. 😮

@jessica_video_projects

Autistic behaviour in my opinion

@Sikewrongnumber2

very good music

@FirdausAlter

"This is AVANT GARDE man. You wouldn't get it"

I don't care what that is. It's so annoying.

@macgroover8165

music sheet of toomfoolery

@motherflerken9198

-language I don’t know
~~Cunoscuta melodie ro~~
-insert music

@arhr2713

If you're over 38 years old, close your eyes and you can hear a Tom & Jerry cartoon.

@willmosley3215

Pls who knows the song 0.01

@shakeerahjohnson3306

These people try to be the best at something that people not recognize as something good

@gege8079

I wonder if anyone was tapping their foot to this 😂

@Celestialspirit1

???

@simonlasiahaan8835

that balloon really sent me

@ignacioferron9987

@FandyMSaputra

Ahahahahahahahahahhahahahaha😂😂🔥

@2AlphaCentauri6

@marisaelenenadiejamusiccom3974

People are just as dumb as frogs

@a_grip_a_yellovv

she solid looks like gal gadot

@ephemeral7043

For a while I thought she was tuning, and I said when does the song start? Then realizing the song already started…😬

@xMrShadow

Avant garde is music, don't rattle

@shadicgamer2124

marvelous

@sidemirrorvideo

Sounds like Yoko Ono type

@thedreamachinee

My 2 year old niece singing sounds better than this

@dr.cranium2047

It's good for sound effects for a cartoon. But as art on it's own I don't get it.

@easy8690

The nostalgia this style of playing brings me.
