Threnody to the Victims of Hiroshima

A warning to those who experience frisson or have high empathy experiences when listening to music - this is uncomfortable. There is a beauty to it, one that is drawn from the very dissonance and frenetic energy in it, but it’s a piece that is meant to make you grapple with discomfort.

I had not heard this one before, though I have looked into atonal music one time in the past. This is certainly the most unsettling piece I have ever heard and it is amazing. Thank you for sharing the link.
