I remember the premiere of Sleep, broadcast live on BBC Radio Three.
I put my bedroom radio on, at a very low volume so I didn't disturb my neighbour through the thin party wall, and went to bed!
I woke briefly a few times, I think more in the vocalese rather than purely instrumental sections, and eventually came fully awake about twenty minutes or so before the finale, which I stayed to hear. It lasts about eight hours in full.
The premiere was held in front of an audience invited to bring sleeping bags and camping mattresses, though apparently the music was quite loud in the auditorium. The work allows performers to rest between their passages.

@ArishMell You were talking about keeping the sound turned down so it would not wake the neighbors. My grandparents live in a house. not an apartment building like you do. They have the sound cranked up as they are deaf. When did we talk about the theory of biscuits? I love baking soda biscuits with hot gravy on them. waffles. pancakes. and hamburger and fries are not biscuits. 🍓 Here is a tasty strawberry to eat. 🍓

@trackboy I mentioned not disturbing the neighbours, yes, but you introduced irrelevant stuff about amplifiers.
I never said I live in a flat. All my homes, my own and those owned by my parents, have been self-contained semi-detached or terraced houses, not flats.
You sprinkled your last message with needless images of food.
