In 1996, I had the idea of starting a website that would be solely dedicated to the life and work of Karlheinz Stockhausen.
Since I had corresponded for many years with Stockhausen, I contacted him with my proposal.
Stockhausen agreed and assigned Kathinka Pasveer as his liaison on the project.

Since that humble beginning, more than 10 million musicians, composers and interested music-lovers have visited this site.
I am very pleased that this collaboration has been such a great success. I hope you all continue to enjoy our work.
