But I thought it none the worse for that, it fitted the theme of the evening which was really Stockhausen and beyond.<BR/><BR/>If there was any comment I'd make it would be that more 'pure' Stockhausen would have been a useful balance to the improvised sets. For me the highlight was Daan Vandewalle's playing of <I>Klavierstücke I-IV</I> and I was left wanting more.<BR/><BR/>But, given the state of the piano, Daan was probably glad there was no more!Pliablehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10616598845886342325noreply@blogger.com
