RIP Stockhausen
"Karlheinz Stockhausen, who died aged 79, was the leading pioneer of electronic music and of the new uses of physical space in the performance of music; he was regarded by many avant-garde musicians of his generation as the most significant German composer since Richard Wagner, but his appeal to the general public was more restricted." [source Telegraph]
"Ridiculed by many in the musical establishment for his increasingly outlandish ideas and self-agrandissement ("my personality is a universal statement"), alternately dismissed as charlatan and revered as a genius, Stockhausen once compared the September 11, 2001 attacks on New York's World Trade Centre to "a work of art"."
