this post is so stupid i'm surprised you're not a tripfag
Both Boulez and Bowie were great musicians.
Bowie was tremendously influential across culture including in classical music (Peter & The Wolf, "Low" and "Heroes" Symphonies, etc.).
Boulez...well is fucking Boulez.
Don't show your age too much!

At least it's not half as stupid as the person I'm replying to right now
I have all of Bowie's albums, all of Boulez's compositions and a good number of his works as a conductor and I think Bowie's death is more significant.

>despite caring fuck all about him otherwise
But that's not true. Pretty sure even as a whole Bowie has had more influence on music and people's live than Boulez. Not to mention that outsise his conducting, Boulez also represents in his composition and his writings on music everything I dislike about what 20th Century Classical became and in a way also everything I dislike about /mu/

>implying I didn't care when Mr. Boulez died
David Bowie is a huge part of the musical fabric of Britain, of course I'm bloody upset!
You yanks wouldn't understand, you've yet to produce a good musician.
>not mourning both
I'm sad that there's no more Bowie and no more good conductors of Berg, believe me.

His music and writings outside of his youth really aren't inaccessible or elitist.
