[microsound] Re: stockhausen RIP: NYTimes article



RIP

Good obit in the NYTimes but, perhaps it's just me, why oh why do they feel the need to translate all the tiles of the works mentioned: "Song of the Youths", "Groups", "Contacts", etc. (and Messiaen's "Mode of Values and Intensities")? It's the first time I noticed this. Do they always do this? I know the British and Irish are pretty poor in foreign languages but even the Guardian used the "correct" titles.
