Barometric pressure is lower at five
feet off the ground than it is at four feet off the ground
but the difference is small enough that it would seem
negligible for all practical purposes. Yet it is
that difference that makes a helium balloon rise.

YouTube recommended composer/pianist Frederic Rzewski to me
after he died last month. In particular, they recommended his

which is a large set of variations on a theme,
ranging from dense and gnarly to rather accessible. Good stuff.
For a taste, try starting at
variation 13
in a performance by Rzewski.
