The original was composed as a violin concerto.
Just stumbled upon an arrangement for two erhus and a piano:

What an odd time signature!
Depends on what you're looking at, I suppose.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

That was supposed to be a word play on the fact that 5/4 is commonly classified as an "odd" meter.

My undergraduate teacher for theoretical computer science was Arnold Schönhage. And of course he taught us the Schönhage Strassen multiplication algorithm, which is way faster than Kamasutra's.

I remember being a little overwhelmed by the math around the FFT.

Of course, it should be noted that the Kamasutra more broadly deals with many aspects of love rather than to merely multiply quickly.

I’ve been quite impressed by Peter Bence’s many virtuosic piano covers of popular tunes. He struck me as someone with extraordinary technique as well as extraordinary creativity. I have been wondering what his original composition would be like, and now I have come across an example:

I'd never heard of him.
Wow. What a talent.
Thanks for making me aware of him.
Currently listening to "Under Pressure."
