Continue here if you are ready to encounter VERY unfamiliar-sounding music.
More tracks cooming soon!
Sciarrino, Salvatore: Canzona di ringraziamento
Don't miss the solo music: a beautiful gratitude song for the flute.
Ligeti, György: Piano Concerto
A cavalcade of instruments? After a few listens, you'll feel that all the sounds are in the right place.
Coates, Gloria: String Quartet No. 7
The organ and string quartet can intertwine in amazing harmony. Exceptional music.

Johnston, Ben: String Quartet No.8
A milestone for the string quartet, with new harmonies.
Filidei, Francesco: Ballata No. 7
Sad and touching desert island music.
Berio, Luciano: Sequenza VI for viola
Unfortunately, compared to the violin, the viola is often neglected. That’s a pity.

Comic sense.
Gudmundsen-Holmgreen, Pelle: Frere Jacques
Avant-garde music - inspired by neo-dadaist paintings.

Scelsi's often remarkably strange (and therefore unique) music - performed with elegance and naturalness.
Feldman, Morton: Patterns in a Chromatic Field
Playing with musical memory, differentiation, and repetition...
Hölszky, Adriana: Efeu und Lichtfeld
Pulsating sources of light. The unique interaction of the huge organ and the small violin.
Ivičević, Mirela: Case White
Attack and fall.
Kagel, Mauricio: Tactil
Kagel’s experimental theater (yes, theater) piece. Innovative and creative use of the instrumentation.
Ligeti, György: Chamber Concerto
Entering into Ligeti‘s harder to follow music, which is, at the same time, a fantastic universe.
Mitterer, Wolfgang: inwendig losgelost, rasant
Modern baroque music with electronics in Listening Room 3. Needless to say more.

Centuries and ideals of beauty.
Nordgren, Pehr Henrik: Piano Concerto No. 3 for the Left Hand

Buene, Eivind: Lessons in Darkness
A unique piece of music from 2017: fundamental lack of light or rather blackness. Your lessons?
Berio, Luciano: Sequenza II
Defying many stereotypes: exploring the timbral and expressive capabilities of the harp.
Sørensen, Bent: Sterbende Garten
A violin concerto dedicated to dying gardens; harmonies you’ve never heard before.
Haas, Georg Friedrich: Guitar Quartet
Guitar quartets are rare, and the tuned guitars make it even more memorable with free microtonality.

Transition to Listening Room 4 with Penderecki's perfect sense of tranquillity and harassment.
