In the first movement of what some people say the finest Symphony of the 20th Century, Neilsen's fifth, the percussion is ordered to stop the rest of the orchestra! One of Ive's symphonies has marching bands in it deliberately out of sync, which makes great percussion. |

Bartok Sonata for Two Pianos and Percussion
I love Cage and Varese but this one is off the scale
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pydEoJI8X84 One of the finest pieces in the repertoire |
