Harp attack

"The most extraordinary noise in all Varèse is the harp attack ('heart attack,' I almost said and that is what it almost gives one) in La croix du sud." - Igor Stravinsky



(The sound is hidden in the background, around 4:42, during the line: "Les singes du Pôle sont albinos ambre et neige/ et sau-pwong-tent vêtus d’aurore boréale.")
