Listening (Crumb, George - Ancient Voices of Children (1970), "The child is finding his voice"

In this piece Crumb uses a lot of singing into the piano to create that tense sound. Also he creates a sound that is very profound. The clicking she creates with her voice is a new style of music that I have only heard in African tribal music. Also the performance of this piece is seems very difficult because of the frequent change it pitch. In between phrases the singer goes from a low pitch a high with the sound resinating in the inside of the piano. I thought that this composition was innovative because it introduced the different effects that a human voice can create when played into a piano and through a microphone.
