John Cage's composition, 'ASLSP,' 'As Slow As Possible,' Lives Up to its Name

from State of the World from NPR

If all goes as planned, the work by the late composer John Cage will take over 600 years to perform. A specially rigged organ in Germany has been performing the piece since 2001, and it recently struck a new chord in the first time in two years.
