Re: [microsound] stockhausen RIP



You can attach whatever you want to some one else's comments but in the end your assumption is what is truly irrelevant because it is just that, an assumtpion.

I honestly meant no disrespect, but if fanboys cannot separate their emotions from hard cold facts then a meaningful conversation is a moot point.

Yes, he was controversial and yes he had a big ego

a long list of ego-maniac personalities?). The "brilliant mind" factor
I also find rather irrelevant. To those "brilliant mind" comments
you could easily attach an unspoken: "horrible man, awful musician,
but a brilliant mind indeed!".
Ultimately, in my opinion, what counts is the music the man left behind, and his music is almost always powerful, deep, original and full of beauty.
