An excerpt from The Symphony of a Thousand Madmen
(A symphony in one movement)
by Wolf Larsen
Allegro
The Symphony begins with the SCREAMS of a thousand babies being born and the moans of a million people dying...
– And the flute wanders around the reader and the violins jump up into a sea of erotic dreams and then the kettle drums begin SMASHING & CRASHING and the choir voices begin stirring up a delicious boiling world of diseases
stirring up a delicious boiling world of diseases!
And then the violins fall out of the sea of dreams and into the rivers of irresistible temptation & sin – and the organ speaks and throws the Middle Ages all over today and the Middle Ages and contemporary classical music ricochet & dazzle all around each other and the flute diiives over the orchestra and ruuuns through a fantasy world and the piccolo ju!mps into the fantasy world and throws pink unicorns & hermaphrodite fairies everywhere...
–And now the kettle drums are SHAKING UP the world and the HO!RNS are playing millions of madmen invading everyone's minds and the symphony becomes the medieval & Renaissance & Baroque & Romantic periods of music re-e-e-eling all around each other and the plucking-plucking-violins become raindrops and then the violins rush together into a river of fire and the cymbals ROAR with a FLASH OF LIGHTNING and the tuba THU!UNDERS and the saxophone ju!mps a tornado into outer space…
