In 2011 or so, our newly adopted kitty Frogs went into heat. The caterwauling was constant, so I figured I'd better set up a voice activated recorder and capture it. I thought I could make an experimental sound composition out of it, and ten years later I did!
Here it is.
Rondo a la Frogs is, as the title suggests, a rondo. The initial unprocessed section returns multiple times, though on returns a different audio manipulation of the same meowing is performed. These returns alternate with free manipulation of other recordings of the very same kitty! All Frogs! In heat!
Play it for your kitties! Or your dogs! Play it loud, with your speakers pointing out the window! Meet your neighbors!
