A rather engaging  and candid conversation with two 20th century icons of 'modern music'….
Even if one doesn't appreciate their compositions, their ideas reflect an epoch which some may find interesting to muse upon…

Hi themeandvariation,

Thanks for the interesting [and very long duration!] link!

This came up in the YouTube side bar:

In The Ocean - A Film About The Classical Avant Garde

One of my directors told me about this video about a month ago. I've only gotten about 30 minutes in so far but I'll listen to it some more this weekend probably now that I'm out of school. I have lots of respect for both of these people, and to hear them in conversation is an insightful look into their thoughts.
