Alexander Nikolajewitsch Skrjabin, Mazurka Op. 40, No. 2

Hello World! is a piece of contemporary classical music for clarinet-violin-piano trio composed by Iamus Computer in September 2011. It is arguably the first full-scale work entirely composed by a computer without any human intervention and automatically written in a fully-fledged score using conventional musical notation.

Note: This is only the Prelude in E-flat minor. This recording does not include the corresponding fugue, which is (oddly) in D-sharp minor.
