More like Wagner.

Quite an unresolved chord.

  1. Fairly certain that chord is from his favorite horror film.

  2. This is probably pay back for a missing bowl of porridge 15 years ago.

I know that Bear, he’s a cousin of mine. That said, he’s got a bit of a tin ear…

That was supposed to be the opening chord from A Hard Day’s Night.

Such a shame a male bear isn’t called a buck, because what we have there is a cluster.

In his later years, Baloo turned his back on the popular Disney-Hanna-Barbera ‘jolly bear’ stereotype, and became more daring and experimental. His work was rarely performed, and little known, with the exception of one opus consisting of a single mournful, elegiac note cluster on the piano, titled “Where the fuck does she keep the Snickers?”. This became a brief internet sensation when the composer appeared on a security camera, played it once, stared at his audience behind the the camera, then walked off in silence.

Music - reduced to the bare necessities.
