Stockhausen has, to some folks, some surprising
likes and dislikes when it comes to music.
Definitions concerning "low" vs "upper" class can
be debated near endlessly, but you can still find
him, on occasion, dancing to "dance" music that
he sometimes finds fun or exciting. Miles Davis
liked Stockhausen too. He got the idea of music
as process from his ideas. They recorded a
collaboration in 1980 along with cellist Paul
Buckmaster at Columbia Records studio (now
"Sony") that is still unissued.
Also, the Stockhausen site that Patricia points
out is a good site and for the past couple of
years visitors were treated with regular updates
from Suzanne Stephens about his projects, but as
time has gone on, the reports have become less
frequent and the last report is nearly a year
old. I do wish they would bring these back... Rod
