> I'd met Stockhausen at the end of the 50's. In a way he was the inventor of electronic music. What I've heard reminded me somehow of toilets flushed in outer space. That impressed me. I couldn't stop laughing - it was so new to me.
Someone from the audience shouted: "You're making these strange sounds only to shock us - and with that you want to earn lot's of money" - Stockhausen said: "I can assure you that I am doing that for pure musical reasons. I have just married a rich woman. I don't need money."
