Actually my interest with Bruckner in a way was very much associated
with Clark. A couples years back, when I confronted him with that memory, my
wife even begin to express to Clark her gratitude and she got a husband out of this
deal (Amy and I met because we both live Bruckner). It was back in 1995-96 I
think, just after I moved from Phila to Boston. I visited Clark for a first
time, we were eating, drinking and arguing about something. Then we were somewhere
in his third floor and somehow an LP of Bruckner 4 materialized in my hands. I
asked Clark why I never was able to understand Bruckner. Clark responded in his
estimable manner: “Because Bruckner requires a patience and you never can accumulate
patience because you never shut a fuck up.” I was laughing then but I certainly
took a note…Rerurn to Romy the Cat's Site
