Stockhausen 1928-2007
I just read that Karlheinz Stockhausen died last Wednesday. That kinda bums me out. 
A few years ago I took three semesters of Music History at GRCC. In the last semester I had officially become a serious music nerd, and me and my boy Sam were way into modern compositions. One of the composers mentioned in that class was Stockhausen. After learning a bit about him, I had this idea that it would be really cool if I sent him a letter in German telling how awesome his work is. And it would be REALLY cool if I had moved to Germany and studied under him.
That dream is now gone. Stockhausen is no more. You will be missed you crazy, old man.
