I like Stockhausen's "Kontakte" very much. It's early synthesizer music which IMHO is riveting from beginning to end. There is a recording available with percussion, (fine by me), and an earlier recording without. Your choice. It's hard for me to believe anyone would have a problem with this piece. John Smyth
