Thank you John for inviting my favorite Diva; Miss Christine Schafer to SOUNDCHECK.
I'm still discovering details that I haven't heard after more than 100 times of serious listening sessions to her Pierrot Lunaire recording. So far; to my ears this piece is a challenge to digest as a serious heavy duty listener to serious MUSIC. I listen to serious music & watch serious films 24/7/365.
Dark Music & Films are esoteric to me. Like a black cat they are full of mysteries & secrets. I think that's what makes them interesting to invest attention.
Diva Christine Schafer's website is Absolute Spitzenklasse. Just like her ART. Live Long CS.
Cheers.
Hamid.
