THIS IS MAGIC. This is why we have MUSIC. Thank you Maestro Hartung.

[Sinfoniette]

Nope. The very common translation is Thus Spoke Zarathustra, although Also Spoke Zarathustra makes sence.

I've listened to 20 versions. So far, this is the best - for fidelity and movement.

"And when his wisdom became too great and caused him to weep, then he descended. And then began the tragedy - that no one would share with him, but which brought him relief and revelry."

"My soul is unmoved and bright as the mountains in the morning." --Nietzsche from the 'Thus spoke Zarathustra:Firs Part.'

Thanks for sharing--absolutely cosmic!
