Reading a poem aloud does not make you the poet, the visionary per se. He is master of his sounds. We can only thank him for sharing.

I've have been very fortunate to see this album being performed live in the Netherlands, Nijmegen, shortly after the album came out. Even today, it still is as impressive and beautifull as then. The repetitive part is strenghtended by the minor shifts in the melody.

OH MY GOD, I learned this piece in ONE day and I play it better then the composer himself.

Wow. That's a real boost for the confidence. I only started playing again last week after a 15 year break.

@horseburger WOW!!! You must be REALLY talented! COOL!!!!

@horseburger how can you say you play it better than the glass himself?

[horseburger]

@Jurek009

Easily, I just did.

@horseburger How can you say that you play it better if he's the one who knows exactly what it sound sound like?

[horseburger]

@SamuelKGB

Knowing what you want it to sound like doesnt mean you can play it. You can design a computer game and get beat by someone else on it.
