If you'd like a step-by-step approach to contemporary classical music, please check the listening category - from LR 01 to LR 04.
Haas, Georg Friedrich: Limited approximations
Desert island music with six (!) micro-tonally tuned pianos.
Brown, Earle: From Folio
Digging deep.
Ligeti, György: Requiem
Ligeti’s Requiem…
Death: pain, fear, kyrie.
Nordin, Jesper: Calm Like A Bomb
No, this is not the song of the rock band Rage Against the Machine. Which music has more punch?
Penderecki, Krzysztof: Threnody
If you feel why Penderecki composed his work this way, no more music will be unusual in this Listening Room.
Ivičević, Mirela: Baby Magnify / Lilith's New Toy
Seductive games - not for children...
Oehring, Helmut - Schiphorst, Iris ter: Prae-Senz
Turn-of-the-century ballet music: know-how and state-of-the-art technology, full of inventions.
Krauze, Zygmunt: Stone Music
Tuning the piano with real stones? Why not?
Czernowin, Chaya : Anea Crystal
Music-crystal modeled on an ionic crystal.
Wyschnegradsky, Ivan: Les Arc-en-ciel
Twelfth-tone music: modern harmonies to discover.
Lorentzen, Bent: Cruor
Extremely serious and somber organ music with all the power of the instrument. Substantial energy.
Penderecki, Krzysztof: Polymorphia
Many – shocking – forms of sound.
Ligeti, György: Volumina
Can’t read sheet music? No problem, Ligeti drew his idea. How does it sound?
Sciarrino, Salvatore: Macbeth
Sciarrino’s aspiring singers are novel and fantastic. Macbeth, like you – very probably – never heard.
Dillon, James: Birl
The wonderfully pleasant baroque harpsichord in Listening Room 04? It’s possible.
Scelsi, Giacinto: Uaxuctum: I.
The end of a civilization with Scelsi’s painful colors. An overwhelming representation of instinctive fear.
Xenakis, Iannis: Mikka / Mikka "S"
Continuous slide.
Clementi, Aldo: Passacaglia
Acoustic illusions - for flute...
Radulescu, Horatiu: String Quartet No.5
Plasmatic music: the endless ocean of vibrations.
Lang, Bernhard: Monadologie XIII
Rethinking the symphony - with two orchestral groups.
Pape, Gerard: Le Fleuve du Désir IV
Chaotic-sound composition for 8 (!) solo violins.
Holliger, Heinz: Fünf Stücke
Sometimes there is no doubt about the listening category of a piece of music - perpetuum mobile for organ and electronics.
Henry, Pierre: Paysage
Isn't this music shocking enough? What about Etranglement on the same album?
