in the last few seconds when he's talking about those voices he doesnt describe them as an electric sensation but as.. he says "ca donne... c'est comme une current continue" which translates as "that gives... it's like a continuous current (flow)" which isnt reealllyy the same as an electric sensation i suppose?
I must thank you for uploading this. I recall finding this on YT a few years ago, without subtitles, so it thrills me to find them in place here. I do not know a word of French, so I don't know what I am missing. I felt very frustrated by the absence of sound in the second part, however.
Well, I'm afraid that's the only i could find... And since my french isn't good enough to do it myself, people that doesn't find it satisfactory will have to put up with it. But i'd say it's better than nothing and also would thank whoever went through the hassle of translating it so we grateful people could enjoy this extraordinary documentary about greatest Ligeti.
Shame you won't show the same gratitude and just enjoy this film! Or would you care to contribute subs yourself?
First of all, thanks indeed for posting this amazing video.
Here are some minor corrections to your translation:
He mentions wolves, not foxes.
Second error, when he talks about his house he says it HASN'T changed.
Third.. when he's talking about his childhood and saying that he drew and read from 3 years old he also says 'i was very introverted'

thank you for taking the time to upload - this is a lot more easy than the option at UBU-web where I had to download it first (back then, that is)
question: did you make the English translation yourself or was it already there when you found the movie?
