Program notes:
Artificial Intelligence - Problem Solver or Threat? The term technological singularity is understood to mean a point in time at which artificial intelligence (AI) surpasses human intelligence and thus rapidly improves itself, which would accelerate technical progress to such an extent that the future of humanity behind this event can no longer be foreseen. The first superintelligence would therefore be the last invention that mankind will make, since from this point in time future inventions would largely be developed by machines.
The term became popular through the 1998 book "The Singularity is near" by the US computer pioneer and author Raymond Kurzweil, which sets the date of the singularity to the year 2045.
What at first sounds like a distant vision of the future has been coming increasingly within reach for a number of years. The theory of singularity is much more than a science fiction gimmick. The predicted point in time of the singularity has been postponed several decades into the future by futurologists. What is certain, however, is that we are already on the “Journey into Singularity” and it is very likely that it will come as a surprise, possibly even for those involved in the development.
This has become my favourite brass band piece, overtaking Paul Lovatt-Cooper's IMMORTAL. Simply stunning, and that euph-flugel duet is sublime.
This is modern music sat its best: original and not derivative. Most import, it is accessible to the public at large.
Hello from New Zealand. Wonderful piece of music, always great to hear New brass band music.
Would it be possible to message me on messenger please, regards this piece. Thanking you in advance.
This is so good! Great piece (and great playing)!! Hopefully we'll hear this piece at the Norwegian nationals at some point
great piece and very well played
Fantastic piece, Good Job ! 🔥🔥🔥
I listen to this al the time. Great job!
Incredibly impressive piece of music!😍🎶 I am very proud of you!🥰
Sehr cooles Stück, das Journey Into Singularity. Hab gedacht, das wird bestimmt so ein super modernes, nicht anzuhörendes Stück. Aber nein, lässt sich sehr schön anhören. Meinen Glückwunsch zu so großer Musik!!!
Great piece of music! Bravo! nice and good addition to the brass band repertoire.
Thank you so much!
What a fantastic piece!
Thanks Yusri!!!
This has been my ear candy this week! Beautifully written piece with some amazing musicianship!
Good Job Mathias! 👍🔥
Thanks 🔥
Servus Mathias, meine Glückwünsche zu diesem Stück. Für Stufe 6 ist es auch anhörbar. Nicht zu kryptisch. Gut, für Leute die den Radetzki Marsch kaputtklatschen nicht geeignet.
Mit Singularität hätte ich nicht unbedingt KI in Verbindung gebracht, sondern das es zu einem Schwarzem Loch gehört.
Frohes Schaffen und an scheena Doaach.
