Its a Koln concert night... Part 1 of 4. One man, one piano (keep that in mind as you listen). Yes, its challenging music (this isnt AM or even FM radio), but it is sublimely challenging (even surreal at times). This 4 part piece, comprehended as a whole (click through for parts 2-4), reflects the rising and falling, becoming and unbecoming, generative and degenerative, birthing and dying, alternately pleasant and unpleasant patterns of life and existence. The difficult, jarring, and even perhaps monotonous sections are as innately essential and necessary as the pretty, joyful, even weep-inducing parts (have you ever weeped to music?) when their place in the whole is recognized and respected. Just like in real life. One of the most important, and underrated compositions of the 20th century. (Part I is probably the most challenging of the 4 parts...hang in there, some of the most beautiful parts are in the following sections). Its a reflection of life, ranging from muck and thorns to bliss.
