'Longplayer, the World’s Longest Concert, Continues in London
Longplayer is a composition whose duration is measured not in minutes, hours or even days, but in centuries. Designed to last 1,000 years, a performance of Longplayer began in the year 2000 in London. Conceived and composed by Jem Finer, it is played mainly by computers, with the help of live performers who occasionally perform in sync with the 1,000-year-long version.
