We are exploring alternative non-audience based formats – but more about this soon!

Treating each component as an equal partner, Dirk Rothbrust has curated a diverse programme of chamber music for electronic percussion and keyboard instruments. Karlheinz Stockhausen's compositions for percussion instruments from the 1950s and 60s are ground-breaking, trend-setting and still highly topical. From a simple 'crack' Stockhausen created in ›Kontakte‹ (1958-60) a completely new universe of sounds, frequencies, tones and structures - the first trio in music history for percussion, piano and tape. In Steffen Krebber's duo for Moog synthesizer and drum set, the instruments filter each other electronically. 

Programme

Karlheinz Stockhausen - REFRAIN (1959) for 3 players

Steffen Krebber - Amphiference (2019) for drum set, minimoog and two amplifiers

Karlheinz Stockhausen - KONTAKTE (1958-1960) for piano percussion and tape
