@GramophoneMag Wow. Birtwistle is worse than Stockhausen.

@GramophoneMag How can anyone hate Stockhausen? They should attend a concert of his music, that would change their tune. -
@GramophoneMag Audiences have loved the early Cage I've done. Maybe people don't like the Cage cliche... tacet...or not... -
-
@GramophoneMag interesting, but I think is more to do with people not being ready to grasp than the quality of those composers. -
@GramophoneMag As Stravinsky said, "they need to listen better." -
@GramophoneMag astonished not to see Schoenberg - ruined 20th century music as far as I'm concerned -
@GramophoneMag How predictable. I wonder how many people who voted have *listened* to this music, instead of merely sharing a room with it. -
@GramophoneMag I don't understand why Feldman is on this chart, though I would be interested in hearing it realized as a piece of music. -
@stevendaverson@GramophoneMag It depends on the structure of the sample. Many people around me love Feldman. Statistics, who cares? ;-) -
@stevendaverson These opposing opinions are what we were trying to find! Any recordings you'd recommend? -
@MikeTeaches85 Ha! Any recordings from the above that you'd recommend? -
@drbarbarabaker It's just opinon - and it can all change! -
@GramophoneMag So many to think choose from. The Mask of Orpheus or Secret Theatre on@nmcrecordings are both great… -
@GramophoneMag KONTAKTE on WERGO is seminal, plus TRANS on Stockhausen Verlag is a riveting listen, with the boos and catcalls included! -
@GramophoneMag The Feldman Piano and String Quartet with Takahashi and the Kronos 4tet remains one of my favourite Morty recordings… -
@GramophoneMag plus the Routine Investigations disc on Montaigne(?) is good entry-level Feldman. -
@GramophoneMag Cage you need to see live, but the Mode disc of Concert for Piano and Orch or Roaratorio on WERGO are good places to start. -
@stevendaverson Thanks for the feedback - we will feature selected recordings when we publish the results. We like all composers!
