Ligeti died yesterday.
The legends are starting to leave - first Lou Harrison and Berio, now this. It won't be long until Carter, Boulez, Stockhausen, Johnston, Babbitt, Rautavaara, Crumb, and all the others go too.
I've been listening to L's piano etudes quite a bit today, and also a couple of other pieces. It's always an absolute shock to me that these people could ever die - they just seem beyond that kind of thing.
