   Longplayer is a very long piece of music by British composer and   
   musician Jem Finer which is composed to play for 1000 years without   
   looping. It started to play at midnight on 1 January 2000, and if all   
   goes as planned, it will continue without repetition until 31 December   
   2999.   
      
   I got to this after looking up John Cage's "As Slow as Possible".

   Which is, apparently, only the second longest piece of music.
