Varèse - Ionisation

Performed by Pierre Boulez conducting the Ensemble InterContemporain. Twentieth-century classical music at its most audience-offputting, at least if you think that everything should sound like Mozart (whose work I love, incidentally). According to Wikipedia, " Frank Zappa often claimed that Ionisation inspired him to pursue a career in music."
