The latest OCCAM from 脡liane Radigue - the creator of drone music.
The latest sounds, including the world premiere of the latest instalment of 脡liane Radigue's epic OCCAM series and a performance of Beat Furrer's astonishing Piano Concerto.
Kate Molleson introduces some of the latest sounds, including a performance of Beat Furrer's astonishing Piano Concerto and the world premiere of the most recent instalment of 脡liane Radigue's epic OCCAM series.
Recorded at Wigmore Hall a fortnight ago at the culmination of London Contemporary Music Festival's 10th anniversary programme, Ensemble Klang performs OCCAM DELTA XXIII, from the 92-year-old composer who gave birth to drone music. And, at the 成人快手 Studios in December, Nicolas Hodges is the soloist in Swiss-born Austrian composer Beat Furrer's Piano Concerto. A work which ranges, from the subtlest articulations to an almost brutal power, it explores piano sound, especially its "resonances, overtone spectra and pedalizations," and ends in a vortex of notes hammered out in the highest register.
