Influence
In “An Ives Celebration: Papers and Panels of the Charles Ives Centennial Festival Conference,” Hans G. Helms discussed the “strange historical coincidence” between Ives’s Central Park in the Dark and Karlheinz Stockhausen's Gruppen fur Drei Orchester. He found that after a performance of Central Park in the Dark by the West German Radio Symphony Orchestra, Stockhausen came out with Gruppen fur Drei Orchester, which had very similar musical qualities to the Ives piece, such as independent lines represented through individual players and dividing the orchestra spatially.

Famous quotes containing the word influence:
“The private life of one man shall be a more illustrious monarchy,—more formidable to its enemy, more sweet and serene in its influence to its friend, than any kingdom in history. For a man, rightly viewed, comprehendeth the particular natures of all men.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Cultural expectations shade and color the images that parents- to-be form. The baby product ads, showing a woman serenely holding her child, looking blissfully and mysteriously contented, or the television parents, wisely and humorously solving problems, influence parents-to-be.”
—Ellen Galinsky (20th century)
“We cannot spare our children the influence of harmful values by turning off the television any more than we can keep them home forever or revamp the world before they get there. Merely keeping them in the dark is no protection and, in fact, can make them vulnerable and immature.”
—Polly Berrien Berends (20th century)
