Who's sad? What's sad?! Will someone let me know when this exciting thing happens?

I think it's an album of vocal pieces, perhaps like e.g. "Song of Earth" on "Spirit of Peace"?

thank you! i finally had time to figure out how to hear this and it totally sounds like it should have a herzog voiceover talking about cave-dwelling glow worms and their mating habits or something. also reminds me of ernst reijseger a little now that i think about it. anyone know what/where the picture on the cover is?

It's the same tune, yes. He was fond of it and who can blame him? Interestingly, or maybe not, some of this reminded me of, respectively, Stockhausen's "Atmen gibt das Leben" and Cornelius Cardew's "The Great Learning", both of which were composed for choirs of "amateurs".

I wish that I could read/speak/understand German, but I don't. Relying on google translate has, as usual, produced nothing but pure gold while trying to understand what is going on here http://www.popolvuh.nl/archsounds1971this is just the first two lines

We do not see ourselves as musicians, but as people whose decision it was, what they feel and what they can feel, say in music. The belief in mediation and communication is our faith in music. The music that we make, arising from the recollection in which we willfully to learn with a desire to enter.

just one more! the end of the first paragraph
We learn to understand our imagination, we take it, we live it. Our music and its conversion to convey this way: The traumatic life, the unconscious rooms. So our music has necessarily to lean more-without reference to the music of the indigenous people in them. We are going to find our own way a meditation form that comes from our culture. We encounter the unconscious with our consciousness, we fall out of time and stretch this moment.

i take it back -- not sharing this would be selfish
The group lives in Peter churches in Wasserburg, in an old vicarage. This presbytery has become a creative human settlement.We're in the middle of the court music. By the time there, a sound space as an egg on the images of Hyronymus Bosch.The Moog synthesizer allows to create any sound even imaginary. This first is a danger: In the, in his Vermittluing yet unexplored medium - music - is the MOOG machine an incredibly perfect instrument to mental influence, because the processes are right: A pressed sound conveys feelings pressed, a sound open the possibility to relax, to find a creative peace.We work - in our understanding - not with tones, but with the entire Tongebäude the overtone series. Thus, the concrete sound is never limited in his room, he is related to him how the consciousness to the subconscious, he acts in it, as the center of the circle in the district. We are not trying to produce vibrations that result from a musical product, we have been working with vibrations as the starting material. This music conveys more directly than speak any other music before: The vibrations come straight to the listener.

i can read so i nominate myself for reading this while someone noodles on a machine:
When we think of melody, then we remember how we sang as children: without intention, just for their own happiness. Eventually we left off, like the children to sing. Today we get to that, as monstrous.

"This was the first time I heard Florian on the piano. I was fascinated while listening to him play in that old empty mosque, where chickens and cats, our daily audience, ran through the building"

wow, i'll have to give myself time to absorb this. how lovely!
i skimmed the questions and liked this part because it's a little insignificant tidbit that probably only his wife would know Someone wrote to Florian. "My baby cried all night . I didn´t know what to do. But when I played Hosianna Mantra it stopped at once."
