Re: Stockhausen

Trent,

He had such an expansive and diverse output that it's hard to pinpoint a few "must-haves." The Klavierstücke and Gruppen are pretty important works from the '50's. Another good one is Mantra and I would also recommend getting your hands on as much of Licht as possible. Much of this is hard to find and you'll probably have to order from the Stockhausen Verlag online.

The music world lost a very important figure. An ensemble I'm is in the process of programming one of his works for our inaugural concert. His music is generally very difficult to get together but extremely rewarding and it's the least we can do to honor this great visionary.

-Matthew
