ABSTRACT
Francis Strauven: In several of your articles you point expressly to an analogy between music and architecture. In the text that you had printed on the record sleeve of Canto General, you compared certain musical works with certain bridges that came into being at around the same period. In your text ‘Mobile Music Halls’ from 1961, you made suggestions for the designing of concert-halls that would spatially embody an equivalent of atonal music. The analogy between music and architecture is something that I myself find very appealing, but that remains rather difficult to put into words. Can you tell me how, and on the basis of what similarities, you see this analogy?
