Few classical pianists are interested in learning the technique, and other pianists don’t have the technical ability needed to grasp it, he says. “There should be thousands of pianists soaring like eagles,” he says. “Why did God make this miracle of continuous music just for it to disappear? I’m so afraid, so afraid that I will die and that this music will perish with me because it’s incomprehensible to the classical world.”

Aw fuck. Another philosopher
