Karlheinz Stockhausen - Goldstaub
The following is the score to this piece:
Live completely alone for four days
without food
in complete silence, without much movement
Sleep as little as necessary
Think as little as possible
After four days, late at night,
without conversation beforehand
play single sounds
WITHOUT THINKING which you are playing
Close your eyes
Just listen
* * *
And here is an account of a musician's experience performing the piece. Pretty interesting.
