        Electrifying, perhaps?

            Apologies: I have to go out and be nice to people for an hour or so. Flay is almost there on the - aham - current teaser.

                It was SCB who said << I can find a link between Steve Reich and Walt Whitman, but I cannot link it to Stockhausen. >>

                so I cannot claim any merit.

                Walt Whitman wrote "I Sing the Body Electric"

                I find a reference to Charlie Schmid and his percussion ensemble 'I Sing The Body Electric' performing Steve Reich's 'Drumming'.

                But lost about Stockhausen - he did much that was electric, I'm sure.

                  Steve Reich Electric Counterpoint is what I think the question alluded to. I still cannot find anything to link Stockhausen to "electric" as distinct from "electronic".

                    Wow! I didn't know this! (I wish I had.)

                    If you follow the "synonyms" route ("corpse" = "body") you'll encounter synonyms for "room(s)" and "polyphony" that will be useful.

                        Are we looking at "Studio für Elektronische Musik" where Stockhausen worked at one time? Or at the Elektronische Studien which he composed at that time?

                          Either will fit, SCB, but I was thinking (not very carefully!) of the two Elektronische Studien. Bravo!

                          So:

                          the link is Electr[on]ic:
                          Karlheinz Stockhausen's Studies
                          Walt Whitman's I Sing the Body Electric
                          Steve Reich's Electric Counterpoint

                          ... back to you, methinks?

                            Slightly more obscure than usual:

                            What F is related to Verdi, Haydn, Schubert, Weber, Rossini and Elgar?

                              Goshdarnit!! I had a few minutes this afternoon and was toying with "Electric" but fixated on Walt Disney so it didn't fit. Whitman, Whitman, Whitman you fool Caliban!!



                              Nice one!
