Rick's letting the *listener* open their windows; his
recording is intentionally quiet so that one
particular Santa Cruz car horn honk won't be heard
every time around. ;-) Honk...

I find Rick's version refreshing, because so many
performers take liberties with the tempo of that
piece, usually playing it waaaay too fast. ;-) ;-)

Honk...

What I'm waiting for is someone to perform Ligeti's
'Poeme Symphonique' with *one* metronome and 100 EDPs!
