I haven't yet had time to go through this entire long thread, and am sure that somewhere in it is the following link. If not - for those (unlike Sir Thomas Beecham) who may care to "tread in it" - an intriguing interview and rehearsal can be watched HERE. Baz I have just looked at this Baz, what a fascinating clip. I loved the sounds... and I intend to pursue this  A |

...Interviewer (as though sucking large plum): Can you tell me what the most beautiful sound, or the most interesting sound, you've ever heard is?
very long pause
Stockhausen: No.
And what a silly question too! Rather like asking Pablo Picasso "What is the most beautiful or most interesting shape you have ever seen?"; or asking Salvador Dali "What is the most beautiful or most interesting colour you have ever seen?". Or how about asking Scott Joplin "What is the most beautiful or the most interesting rhythm you have ever heard?". With regard to Stockhausen, perhaps he never gave up listening to discover the most beautiful sound possible - Richard Barrett's avatar certainly suggests a determination upon his part to do so, but we shall never know.

Not quite the example we might have chosen but certainly in its general thrust very much what we were thinking. Actually the finest moment for me was Stockhausen terminating the interview. Some very fine facial expressions to be seen there. Chafers: http://morsecode.scphillips.com/translator.html |

The city is a process which always veers away from the form envisaged and desired, ... whose revenge upon its architects and planners undoes every dream of mastery. It is [also] one of the sites where Dasein is assigned the impossible task of putting right what can never be put right. - Rob Lapsley

Today's Music Matters, devoted to Stockhausen, is available (to those in the UK only) as a Podcast, though it will presumably be available to all via Listen Again for a week. A DAB recording of this (and, I hope, an FM version of this evening's similarly dedicated Hear & Now) will become part of the Dough Archive. http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/podcasts/directory/station/radio3/ |

There are extensive extracts from Stockhausen being played by Stuart Maconie on Freak Zone on 6Music this evening. You might like to wait to look at the track listing for the programme and then "listen again" because a lot of the rest of the show is of a more dubious quality ( although Roger Moore's take on Once In Royal David's City is quite remarkable )
