| From my 
view, we build long term relationships with our music, with our 
equipment, with our rooms. That exposes weaknesses in ourselves, our 
listening habits, our cultural depth. In the process, we learn new 
vocabulary to communicate what art does to us inside. In a „philosophy“ I
 expect culture not hardware. I do not get my greatest audio high from a
 stereo, concert or reading a score. The audio high comes at magic 
moments when the mood, the surroundings and the performance create 
something new in me. I have cried at performances when driving my car 
somewhere listening to the radio. Sometimes a glass of wine and some 
cheese at home make a choral performance spicier. |
