Sad to hear that Chopin has died, Pierre.
I well remember seeing & hearing him in Toronto years ago, conducting
his three tape recorders with élan and humor, running from one to
another, turning them up & down, & creating a strange & delightful
'music' out of his own technologically altered voicings, as the
commentary suggests.
