You gave me two recordings of Wanda Landowska and I have listened to them. In one of them, theres a passage which is a pure marvel.1

Isnt it!

It doesnt last longits like crystal.

Yes, exactly! I found it extraordinary.

Its so beautiful! Ive never heard anything so pure.

Pure, yes, absolutely pure!

Thats a divine means of expression. Its really a divine manifestation on earth.

Yes, very pure and simple.

I have always wondered why I wasnt born a musician.

You must have been a musician.

Its really a regret in my life not to be a musician. Writing is NEVER it. But capturing a note like that one

Oh, mon petit, yesterday or the day before, I heard something I dont exactly know what it isit isnt music, I mean it isnt the notation of some musical instrument: its the notation of a vibration of I cant say, I didnt understand.2 But in it At first, you feel exactly as if you had entered a madhouse: its completely incoherent, disjointed, and everything is unexpected because there is no logicabsolutely nothing mental. So you go from one sound to another, without any transition, and your first impression is exactly like its madness. But if you listen, now and then theres a sound, which isnt the sound of a musical instrument absolutely wonderful! But it lasts one second. You would like it to continuepfft! gone. And now and then there is a voice, quite like the human voice, you can almost hear words, there seem to be wordswhich made me think that the sound of our voice has its origin elsewhere (below or above, I dont know; where those vibrations come from I cannot say). And after a while, I saw that something in the being [Mothers being] was I cant say interested, it was something that enjoyed it, that didnt exactly have a pleasant sensation, but almost felt a need for the unforeseen, an unforeseen beyond all that we can imagine: disjointed, no logic, no sense, nothing. It SOUNDS like chaos, but all of a sudden I felt it wasnt chaos, it responded to another law. And when it came towards the end, I really wanted it to go on for a long time.

At first, you start laughing, you make fun of it, you giggle as if you were faced with something absolutely farcical. But now and then, oh! And youve hardly had the time to appreciate it when its already gonea marvel. A marvel: a sound the like of which I have never heard, which no instrument can produce.

You go through all kinds of states, but curiously enough, I discovered in the being, somewhere in the consciousness, a sort of joy or intense interest in the absolutely unexpected the unexpected, which to the mentality is unspeakably farcical.

Interesting.

It is the transcription, by W. Landowska, of a "popular Polish song."

It was electronic music.
