 Simple Music With Stones

A cultural exchange with Gart Westerhout took place on May 18 at Rendaiji Elementary School
in Komatsu. Westerhout introduced a "never-ending-musical composition" with two stones,
which was created by Austrian artist Albert Ennemoser and John M. Geddes. All 115 students enjoyed playing the piece together.

Ennemoser designed the "never-ending musical comosition twenty-five years ago. The idea is
very unique and has been spread and enjoyed all around the world. You just tap two stones together three times in rhythm.  On the earth scale, it´s a music composition. In addition, Westerhot performed his original song "The Snake Ring"  based on an old folktale of Komatsu.
The students were happy with his free expression.
