【ephemera】Stockhausen on 911

Karlheinz Stockhausen: "What happened there is: now you must re-adjust your brain. The greatest work of art imaginable for the whole cosmos. Minds achieving in a single act what we in music can only dream of, people rehearsing like mad for ten years, preparing fanatically for a concert, and then dying. You have people who are that focused on a performance and then 5,000 people who are dispatched to the afterlife, in a single moment. I couldn’t match it. Against that, we - as composers - are nothing."

原來還是有很多人不知道這件事。這是我哪天隨手貼在電腦裡的，請大家自行孤狗Stockhausen加上911應該就有一堆資料，中文的我想是沒有。我覺得這說法真是精確（不要來跟我道德勸說什麼的，我是就事論事）。

明天應該還是會讓灌木繼續當總統吧。看在他是偉大作品的推手之一，貼上這個致意一下。
