Musikalske aftryk - Ingeborg Okkels

Ingeborg Okkels wrote the chapter about graphic notation in the book 'Musikalske aftryk' and in this video she speaks about the "Zen moment" in graphic notation.

The inspiration from Zen philosophy in music could have made publishing houses obsolete. Who needs a composed and printed score when you can just go outside and play according to the sunrays and shadows on the ground?

This is one of the examples, that Ingeborg Okkels has found in the Edition·S catalogue: Ivan Vincze's 'In the afternoon'.  

Nevertheless Edition·S is still here, publishing scores, and 'Musikalske aftryk' was published on occasion of our 150th anniversary.
