Sorry .. didn't want to create a new thread for this, but perhaps someone may know something about the plans to stage Sonntag in New York? Any activity happening in the background toward this? I do remember reading about NYC plans after the success of the premiere in Cologne. KS's music has been well received there in the last few years with sold out shows and all .. I know it costs a lot to stage but something like this would be good to keep the momentum going.
I feel that it could be useful to have a discussion-forum on the music of Stockhausen. There are so many people from all over the world, young and old, learned and eager to get into contact with this musical world: musicologists, composers, musicians, music lovers; people who plan concerts - who write books or have to give lectures and so on. So there should be much stuff, many ideas that we can share. And when we have open questions, there may be people who studied just that and could give a hint or a stimulus.
A problem might be the English language, but i feel that is the only possibility that many people who are interested can participate. And we can exercise tolerance to mistakes!
