You can't call him an assmarmot unless you have listend to at least one of his works throughout - and I mean listened-to and not 'heard'. The name Stockhausen is too often used as shorthand for something disagreeable but the reality is something very different. If you want an introduction, try FREUDE for 2 harps, one of his very last works. A masterpiece worthy of Mozart or Beethoven in my opinion.Robert Slotoverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04098930062508323370noreply@blogger.com
