Opus clavicembalisticum is a work for solo piano, notable for its length and difficulty, composed by Kaikhosru Shapurji Sorabji and completed on 25 June 1930. [1]At the time of its completion, it was the longest piano piece in existence, taking around 4–4½ hours to play, depending on tempo.
Only the piano part (written 1930–31) was completed, yet it is one of Sorabji's longest piano compositions of all [6] and has been described as self-sufficient. [7] Roberge's catalogue renames it to Symphony No. 0 for Piano Solo (see the section on the piano symphonies for the full details of the item).
Sequentia cyclica super "Dies irae" ex Missa pro defunctis, commonly known as Sequentia cyclica, is a piano composition by Kaikhosru Shapurji Sorabji.

Composed phase music features two or more instruments playing a repetitive phrase (part) in a steady but not identical tempo. In the case of gradual phase shifting, initially the tempi of the different instruments will be almost identical, so that both parts are perceived to be sounding in unison and at the same tempo.

Piano Phase is an example of "music as a gradual process," as Reich stated in his essay from 1968. [5] In it, Reich described his interest in using processes to generate music, particularly noting how the process is perceived by the listener. (Processes are deterministic: a description of the process can describe an entire whole composition. [5]
